Converts either the power, amplitude, or gain (amplitude ratio) spectrum to alternate formats including Log (decibel and dbm) and spectral density.
Linear or log spectrum output.
Name | Description |
---|---|
Linear | Returns the linear spectrum output. |
dB | Returns the logarithmic spectrum output in dB. |
dBm | Returns the logarithmic spectrum output in dBm. |
Default: dB
A string containing the unit of the input time domain signal.
If the original signal unit was in volts, this input should contain the letter V for volts.
Default: V
The input spectrum of a time domain signal.
Type of spectrum.
Name | Description |
---|---|
Power (Vrms^2) | Sets the type to power. |
Amplitude (Vrms) | Sets the type to amplitude. |
Gain (amplitude ratio) | Sets the type to gain. |
Default: Power (Vrms^2)
The window constants for the selected window.
You obtain window constants from the Window Properties node. You need this input only when you use the spectral density output formats, the last four output unit selections.
The equivalent noise bandwidth (ENBW) of the window that was used. You can use this value to divide a sum of individual power spectra of the power spectrum or to compute the power in a given frequency span.
Default: 1.0
The inverse of the scaling factor applied to the window.
Default: 1.0
The output unit for the spectrum.
Name | Description |
---|---|
Vrms | Displays units in volts rms. |
Vpk | Displays units in volts peak. |
Vrms^2 | Displays units in squared rms. |
Vpk^2 | Displays units in squared peak. |
Vrms/rtHz | Displays units in rms per root Hz. |
Vpk/rtHz | Displays units in peak per root Hz. |
Vrms^2/Hz | Displays units in squared rms per Hz. |
Vpk^2/Hz | Displays units in squared peak per Hz. |
Default: Vrms
Error conditions that occur before this node runs.
The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.
Standard Error Behavior
Many nodes provide an error in input and an error out output so that the node can respond to and communicate errors that occur while code is running. The value of error in specifies whether an error occurred before the node runs. Most nodes respond to values of error in in a standard, predictable way.
Default: No error
The line frequency interval of the input spectrum. You need this input only when you use the spectral density output formats (the last four display unit selections).
Default: 1.0
The output spectrum.
A string containing the unit of the output spectrum. If the output spectrum is in decibels form, the unit is prepended by dB.
Error information.
