Power and Energy of a Signal : Demystified

Key focus: Clearly understand the terms: power and energy of a signal, their mathematical definition, physical significance and computation in signal processing context. Energy of a signal: Defining the term “size”: In signal processing, a signal is viewed as a function of time. The term “size of a signal” is used to represent “strength of … Read more

White Noise : Simulation and Analysis using Matlab

Definition A random process (or signal for your visualization) with a constant power spectral density (PSD) function is a white noise process. Power Spectral Density Power Spectral Density function (PSD) shows how much power is contained in each of the spectral component. For example, for a sine wave of fixed frequency, the PSD plot will … Read more
