Please take note that, since guard tones are within the allocated band while not being ideally allocated any power, the inner band had to be shifted inwards and a flat junction band (at -20 dBr) had to be added between the inner and the middle bands.

Parameters

allocatedSubBandsvector of start and stop subcarrier indexes of the allocated sub bands
maskBandstart and stop subcarrier indexes of transmit mask (in case signal doesn't cover whole SpectrumModel)
txPowerPerBandWpower allocated to each subcarrier in the allocated sub bands
nGuardBandssize (in number of subcarriers) of the guard band (left and right)

Return a SpectrumModel instance corresponding to the center frequency and channel width.

The spectrum model spans the channel width +/- the guard bands (i.e. the model will span (channelWidth + 2 * guardBandwidth) MHz of bandwidth).
