Dear Ying,
Actually FEFF does not transform the LDOS into the final XAS spectrum.
Although both the LDOS and the XAS are obtained
from matrix elements of a one-particle Green's function, they are obtained
in FEFF from two different calculations: the
XAS is calculated in the presence of a core-hole, and the LDOS is obtained
from the ground state without a core-hole..
This is explained in detail, for example, in Ankudinov, et al., Phys Rev.
B 58, 7565 (1998) as summarized in their Eq. (1):

As a consequence the LDOS and the XAS are not directly related.
Indeed, as pointed out in the above reference:

I hope this answers your question.
With best regards,
John

Dear all.
I am currently running FEFF9 on XANES calculation. However I could not figure out how FEFF transformed LDOS to the final xmu.dat. What function did LDOS data convoluted with to achieve xmu.dat?
Looking forward to hearing any answer.
Thank you.
