my circuit only need very low frequency of signal and cannot add anti alias filter in analog domain, so I adopt sample rate frequency hopping as follow: 1、use FFT to identify if there high value noise low frequency bin. 0.1fs/2<bins <0.2fs/2 2、use FFT to identify if there high value noise in high frequency bin. 0.2...
Let me simplify the question: assuming a PAM-4 signal {-3,-1,1,3} with noise added. I focus on the BER for the signal 1. My question is: with same noise power, does Gaussian noise have the minimum SNR?
I am interested in adding a narrowband interfering signal to my spread spectrum signal. In the waveform model, it's straightforward to generate a narrowband signal within the frequency range of the spread spectrum. However, I'm unsure about how to add a narrowband interfering signal to a spread spectrum signal in a bas...
I have read the following quote from a different post: If the noise is white (spread evenly across frequency), then the power will be distributed equally to each bin, and as we increase the number of bins, the amount in each bin will reduce accordingly (this is the "FFT noise floor"). FFT is the discrete sampling of ...
I need to check if MSK modulation keeps the phase continuous after DS spectrum spread. My thinking is that since we're expanding the bandwidth, it likely involves abrupt frequency changes so it won't keep the phase continous, but I'm not totally sure.
Let's say I've been feeding some digital IIR filter input samples $x[n]$ to get output samples $y[n]$. If after some time $t$ the input becomes all 0s, i.e. $$x[n] = 0, \; \; \forall n ≥ t$$ How can I find the total output energy from that point onwards (without just running the filter for ages): $$\sum_{n =t}^\infty ...
Im recording sound generated by a drilling machine against an object. I have the recording of following : Ambient noise with drilling machine switched off. Drilling machine on+ambient noise Drilling machine on and drilling against a surface+ambient noise. Recordings are done in terms of dB vs time. With that I have f...
My partner stitches, and uses sites like https://www.pixel-stitch.net/ in order to produce patterns. These sites do two things: they downsample an image in space to produce fewer pixels, but they also sample the colors in an image to have fewer colors of thread to use. My intuition is that the naive way to do both of t...
Normally, when we are dealing with quantization noise, we assume quantization noise as uncorrelated, which is white. In this case, we assume SNR = 6.02N + 1.76 where N = resolution However, if quantization noise is correlated to input signal (ex : direct digital synthesis),it's likely that q noise is not white, rather ...
Welch's method is a way to get better power spectral density (PSD) estimations than simple, naive periodograms. It has two main components: Cutting the input into many segments and average their individual PSD to reduce variance. Windowing each segment to reduce leakage from one frequency bin to the other. My questio...
I want to create a Comodulogram to assess PAC. I use the pactools library, which uses frequencies. Since I work with hourly data and want to look at multidien phases, it would be better to use periods instead of frequencies. import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt from pactools import Comodulogram, REFERENC...
I am doing an undergraduate project where I want to first characterize an instrument based on its pitch and timbre and make an instrument recognition system afterward. Pitch characterization is pretty straightforward, I am planning to use the YIN algorithm to find the fundamental frequency of my samples. Now, timbre on...
I have some mortgage data and I am trying to detect when a borrower refinances. To do so, I use a moving average filter to smooth my data and then I run a Bai and Perron (1998) structural break test on the borrowers monthly payments. I am wondering if it would make more sense to smooth the levels of the data or the mon...
The beam pattern of a uniform linear array is $$B(\theta) = \frac{1}{N} \frac{\sin(\frac{N}{2} \frac{2\pi d}{\lambda} \cos(\theta))}{\sin(\frac{1}{2} \frac{2\pi d}{\lambda} \cos(\theta))}$$ where $N$ is the number of elements, $d$ the interelement spacing and $\lambda$ the wavelength and $\theta$ the grazing angle. I w...
I have been reading "Understanding Digital Signal Processing" by Richard Lyons and I find the example in Section 3.11 on zero-padding a little confusing. Incidentally IMHO this is the best written DSP book (by far) and that is why I get concerned if I don't fully understand something. In Figure 3-21 we see the DFT inpu...
Suppose my data vectors $x$ consist of IID Cauchy values. Does LMS filter diverge for all values of step size $\alpha$? I tried some simulations and it appears so. Wondering if this is well-known or how to show this.
I am a senior in high school and am currently trying to conduct an exploration of Fourier Analysis, specifically using the Discrete Fourier Transform to analyse a chord played on my piano. Basically, I'd play a chord of 3 notes, deduce the different frequencies of the sound wave, and estimate the chord played. Accordin...
I have an digital system that needs an analytical signal of length (in time) T. The system is sampling the analog signal with time interval delta t such that T / delta t = 128. So I have 128 samples. I have a FIFO buffer to which, at each delta t, the new sample is stored. The signal however is not analytical but real-...
I know that is the 1D Fourier Transform (FT), and the 2D FT is and 3D FT is , but I am not sure whether these expressions are in fact Fourier transform integral equations for a 1D signal, expanded into 2D and 3D. If they are, then I assume 4D would just be $$ G(u,v,w,\omega) = g(x,y,z,t)e^{-i2\pi \cdot (xu+yv+wz+\ome...
Suppose there is a moving average process of order 1 that also includes a zeroth term thus: \begin{equation} Y_t=\theta\left(B\right)X_t = \left(\theta_0+\theta_1B\right)X_t \end{equation} where $X_t$ is white noise (normally distributed). Now I know that the PSD can be determined from: \begin{equation} f\left(\omega\r...
Following figure is drawn as the block diagram of the digital modulator: The output of the filter block (with the impulse response p(t)) is the convolution of the weighted impulse train with the impulse response of the filter, which in the time domain is equal to: $\sum_{k} {a_k} p(t-kT)$ Considering that the convolut...
I'm digitizing a zero-mean complex Gaussian white noise signal with certain variance, through independent I/Q baseband sampling (two ADCs). The noise variance (power) depends on the thermal emission/signal of a certain microwave body, so out of the ADC I want to be able to compute the signal power to gain information o...
I have heart rate data from a wearable sensor (no ECG). I want to perform Discrete Fourier Transform to see if some patterns are present. I have over 200 signals, as each individual has heart rate measurements for multiple days. How can I analyze these signals? And is it also to compare population group A with group B?...

I am reading the Remez algorithm for designing FIR filters. In the first paragraph of section 15.3.1 of Andreas Antoniou's digital signal processing book, I have two questions. extremals are to be located at the left-hand and right-hand band edges of each band. (why?) B 1 + B 2 +···+ B J , should be divided intor + 1 ...
I want to ask you a question about the waveform synthesis or more spesifically speech synthesis. Most of the state-of-the art papers use mel-spectrograms as their inputs, because it mimics the human ear in a best way.

Let $x(n)$ be a sequence of length $N = LM, n = 0,\dots,N-1$.$N$ and $M$ are integers. The Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) of $x(n)$ is given by $X(k) = \sum_{n = 0}^{N-1}x(n)W^{nk}_N$ where $W_N = e^{\frac{-j 2 \pi}{N}}$. Let $n = l + mL$ and $k = q + pM$ $0 \le l,p \le L-1$, $0 \le m,q \le M-1$ $X(p,q) = \sum_{m = 0...
If the transmitter is on a satellite in a circular orbit at Low Earth Orbit with a QPSK modulated waveform at 1 megabaud centered at 12 GHz downlinking to the receiver, which is stationary on the ground.

I came across an interesting question from Strang & Nguyen$^\color{magenta}{\dagger}$ where it asks to design a $3$-point (or 4-point) high-pass filter with better performance than the $2$-point moving difference filter, which have the impulse response $$ h(n) = 0.5\delta(n) - 0.5\delta(n-1)$$ Please see the question b...
We know that the frequency-domain correlation function and the power delay profile appears as a Fourier transform pair, i.e., $$A_{c}(\Delta f) = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty}PDP(\tau) \cdot e^{-j2\pi \Delta f \tau} d\tau.$$ In practice, we can measure the PDP from the measurments and obtain the PDP in the discrete form. The...
After studying digital communication courses, I wanted to implement these theories and create an application for sending and receiving a gray image via WiFi between two Raspberry Pi devices. The choice of WiFi modules was arbitrary; my goal is to understand the steps and their implementation. So, I read an image where ...
I have been studying the problem of room impulse responses (RIRs) interpolation for a couple of months. I am trying to use compressed sensing to reconstruct (at best) the sound field in the room with a better resolution, or (at least) get an RIR at some desired location where it was not measured before.

My understanding of the Short Time Fourier Transform is that first I need to frame the signal and window it, after that apply an fft on these windowed frames. Using Librosa: signal = np.array([1., 2., 3., 4., 5., 6., 7., 8., 9., 10.]) frame_length_ex = 4 hop_length_ex = 2 frames_ex = librosa.util.frame(signal, frame_le...

I have a full band audio signal (sampled at 48000Hz) and I want to process only the low frequencies with an FIR filter. The maximum frequency that I need to process with the FIR is 3000Hz, i.e., an eighth of the Nyquist frequency of my original signal. Computational cost of the final processing is critical to my applic...
Suppose I have a discrete-time signal vector, for example, x(n)=[1,a1,a2,…,aN]. The signal is then transmitted by using the single carrier pulses, constituting a single-carrier communication over a multipath channel. Hence, at the receiver side, the received signal experiences also the zeros of the z-transform of the c...
I would like to generate brickwall low pass filtered white noise. a cutoff of 1/n is fine for integer n. I suspect that I could mess around with samples that are convolved with the sinc function, but I hope there is a better way? preferably would like to keep the HF noise less than the dither level or if not possible t...
I have a dataset that contains a lot of recordings sampled incorrectly. This incorrect resampling could be explained in two ways: A recording S, which was recorded with a sampling rate of 16kHz, was upsampled to a sampling rate of 48kHz. This upsampled recording S was mixed with other recordings in a dataset containin...
I would like to find periodicity and the oscillation frequency in a signal. I used this simple MATLAB code which works find for some signals, but for a harmonic polluted signal like the one given below it generates wrong results.

In physics, a damped harmonic oscillator that is driven by a sinusoidal force has a steady state solution: $$ x(t) = \frac{F_0}{m Z_m \omega} \sin(\omega t + \varphi) $$ where $$ Z_m = \sqrt{\left(2\omega_0\zeta\right)^2 + \frac{1}{\omega^2} (\omega_0^2 - \omega^2)^2} $$ is the absolute value of linear response functio...
I am aware that if we do not subtract the mean value from the white noise at the beginning (if the mean is not equal to 0), that its autocorrelation function will be triangle shaped and not a delta function. I wonder why that is? I'm also wondering why the signal mean is so often removed at the beginning of each proces...
The documentation for Analog Device's sigmastudio shows some of the formulas behind their biquad IIR filter coefficients. The usual suspects (HP, LP, peaking, ...) as described in RBJ's cookbook are all there. A couple more specialised filters (Butterworth & Bessel) are here as well. However, what really caught my eye ...
I am working towards establishing the error rate of the communication system relying on on-off keying.

The graph includes a peak at zero frequency and some other frequencies. However, my professor says that there should not be a peak at zero. I contend that he is wrong. But my graph is also not right, it should show the second-largest peak at $50 \, \textrm{m/s}$. This is my entire code: %initialize all variables close...
I am working on an audio resampler that is realized as a polyphase FIR filter. While testing, I found that it does not suppress aliasing as well as I would have expected. For testing, a sine sweep is upsampled by a factor of 8, distorted by $\tanh(kx)$, and downsampled to its original rate. For $k \lessapprox 3.7$, the...

I need to acquire an analog signal via an ADC and send it via a digital communication line (CAN bus) with a given frequency $f_{send}=100Hz$. If I understand correctly this means that this constraint imposes a low pass filter on the acquired signal of $f_{send}$. My question is: what is the correct sampling rate to us...
I'm an EE undergrad that struggles heavily with the intuition behind the Fourier Transform (most likely due to a shoddy mathematical foundation).

I want to perform experiment(s) on a digital control system. I have several questions: In analog control systems, the adder is usually an operational amplifier.

I am trying to understand the concept of CRLB for a simple sinusoid in AWGN with a simulation in MATLAB. According to Kay (p. 57) the CRLB for phase estimation is: $var\{\phi\}=\frac{2(2N-1)}{SNR\cdot N(N+1)}$. I generated a MATALB script that simulates 200 sinusoid signals with different amplitudes and fixed noise pow...
E.g. the Symbol Sync block has a Loop Bandwidth, which (if I read the source right) ends up as a PI loop. I know what PID does mathematically, and what FIR and IIR do, but how is one better than the other?

Consider a discrete-time signal consisting of a desired signal component and noise, as follows. $$y_k=d_k + n_k, \qquad k\in\{0,1,\dots,K-1\}$$ This signal is applied to a linear time-invariant (LTI) filter with the goal of recovering the desired signal. In a "data-aided" scenario, where the desired signal is known a...

I send a QPSK signal over pluto sdr and receive it from rtlsdr. As you can see from the screenshot below SNR of the received signal is very high, and the signal is very distinguishable.

As mentioned in the slide below (full slides located here, starting at PDF page 29), the apparent noise floor on a DFT plot depends on the number of sample points $N$ used to calculate the DFT.

In this single carrier QPSK receiver, is designed to receive QPSK data from a satellite in Low Earth Orbit.

The wiki page gives a good overview and pseudocode of encoding procedure, but it lacks the decoding part: The process of decoding a PDM signal into an analog one is simple: one only has to pass the PDM signal through a low-pass filter. This works because the...

The pulse is in the form of several periods of a sine wave, and I believe the frequency of that sine wave increases and decreases very slightly in a (seemingly) cyclic pattern. Very roughly, I would say the pulses occur...
