Description

The PS Harmonic Estimator (Real, Imaginary) block measures real and imaginary parts of a single frequency component (harmonic) of a periodic signal.

A signal is periodic if it completes a pattern within a measurable time frame, called a period, and repeats that pattern over identical subsequent periods. The signal base frequency is the number of periods per second.

The block accepts a physical signal with one or more harmonics present. It outputs the real and imaginary parts of the signal for the selected harmonic. Untyped physical ports facilitate unit propagation. The output signals at both ports have the same physical unit as the input signal.

To obtain meaningful results, run the simulation for at least one full time period of the signal.

Ports

Input

expand all

Input physical signal. The signal must be periodic.

The port name is not visible in the block icon, but you can see this name in the underlying source file by clicking the Source code link in the Description tab of the block dialog box.

Output

expand all

Output physical signal corresponding to the real part of the selected harmonic.

Output physical signal corresponding to the imaginary part of the selected harmonic.

Parameters

expand all

Base frequency of the periodic signal.

The number of harmonic within the periodic signal. The value must be a positive integer.
