Chapter 13 FFT Function
By specifying a setting factor (rate) to be applied to the input signal, the display of data exceeding the result-
ing threshold can be emphasized. This feature is useful for viewing waveforms that may otherwise be
obscured by noise.
The reliability of phase spectrum values is poor when discrete Fourier transform values are extremely small.
For example, in the case of a pure sine wave, almost all phase values at frequencies other than the input fre-
quency result from calculation errors. By treating the maximum value of the power (or cross-power) spectrum
of the input signal,
P
max
, as a reference value, data that exceeds that value multiplied by rate R can be dis-
played with emphasis.
