Characteristics of Sinusoidal Signal
On studying the sinusoidal signal we can study some properties of sinusoidal signal as:
- Sinusoidal signals are periodic signals. This means that the amplitude value of signal begins to repeat after a fixed period of length i.e. time period. The periodicity of sinusoidal signal is 2π.
- A sinusoidal signal is an odd signal. This means signal that this signal is anti-symmetrical about the vertical axis . Mathematically a signal f(x) is said to be odd if f(–x) = –f(x).
- A sinusoidal signal is a continuous signal, this means that there are no breaking points in the graph of a sinusoidal signal. In other words, for a given finite amplitude range of the signal we find an infinite number of amplitude levels in between.
- Sinusoidal signal is a smooth signal and shows a gradual transition in its amplitude over the time. There is no abrupt change in amplitude values making sinusoidal signal an ideal choice.
- The amplitude of sine wave varies between the range -1 to 1 where both are inclusive therefore for a sinusoidal signal A sin(ωt) , the amplitude varies from -A to A.
Sinusoidal Signal
Sinusoidal Signal is an important tool in the electronic industry. They are ubiquitous in modern electronics and are almost used in every daily appliance for input as Voltage, Current, and power amplifiers. In this article, we will study what a sinusoidal signal, how does it look like. We will also represent the Sinusoidal signal mathematically. Later we will discuss the need of having Sinusoidal signal and some applications of Sinusoidal Electronic Signal. We will conclude the article by summing up what we have learned. The electronics industry especially the communication system uses these signals in various circuits and readers can read about these other signals as well.
