Cross power spectrum

hi
I'm trying to obtain cross power spectrum of two time domain data (signal conditioned accelerometer o/p's) using 'cross power spectrum.vi'. The vi o/p one being the 'cross power xy spectrum mag' & the other being the 'cross power xy spectrum phase'. I need to plot the frequency with 'cross power xy spectrum phase' or in other words, I need the corresponding frequency value for the calculated 'cross power xy spectrum phase'. This is required for the calculation of phase delay (phase diff / corresponding frequency) and inturn calculate phase velocity
Regards
Ajit

Hi EISmitho
thanks for the suggestion, accordingly I've incorporated the vi you had suggested. The result obtained from the changes made above contained the frequency values also. But I was bit secpticle about the result as the tabulated frequency was just like a serial no. (1,2,3,...)Is it just a coincidence or have I gone wrong anywhere??Would u pls go through it once and respond to me.
thaks for the help
regards

  • Cross power spectral density

    Hello
    I can not figure out how to use "Cross Power Spectral Density" (CPSD)
    in Labview. I know that Labview has something about
    "Cross Power Spectrum" but I need Cross Power Spectral
    Density, because I am going to measure the coherence which
    needs CPSD as far as I know.
    Thaks for your help.

    The following example code should be helpful.  Please take a look, thanks!

  • How to calcualte Cross power spectral denstiy in Labveiw??

    Hi all,
    I unable to figure out how to calculate the cross power spectral density(cpsd) in labview ??? I'm able to calculate crosspower by using
    Cross Spectrum (Real-Im).VI but i need cpsd using labveiw functions.
    i know that, we can get that through script node function cpsd(x,y) but i shouldn't use that it is my functional requirement.
    And one more, Is this right??  psd=power spectrum/ df.  where df is frequency resolution.
    could any one please help me...
    Thanks and regards

    Hi girikavali,
    does this help you? cross power spectral density and Analyzing Two Input Signals Using the Cross Power Spectrum VI.
    Note: The "cross power spectral density" should mean the same as "cross power spectrum", says Wikipedia - CPS/CPSD.
    The term "density" seems correct to me, because it is devided by the number of the points, see Cross Power Spectrum. If this is not the case, then please supply a mathematical definition, so one could know.
    Cheers,

  • Raw time series with power spectrum

    I want to generate another VI with raw time series and power spectrum. Use soundgen.vi, with a sampling frequency of 1 kHz and datasize of 2000, so that it covers 2 sec.
    How do I display the raw time series data and a power spectrum of it? 
    Find the rest of the peaks and identify them. Why the peaks are where they are?

    To start do a search in the examples that came with LV for FFT. This will show you a good cross-section of what LV has to offer in terms of analysis capabilities. The thing to remember is that you can perform this analysis on data directly from a device or post-process data that you read from a datafile. After going through the examples if you have specific questions, we'll be able to give more specific answers...

  • Power Spectrum no longer working correctly after upgrading to 8.0.1

    Recently, I installed Labview 8.0.1 to correct a problem I was experiencing in 8.0.  The installation resolved my problem, but now the Power Spectrum no longer gives the correct result.  My program has not changed other than the update.  I checked my circuit and everything is functioning properly.  Before changing to 8.0.1 the power spectrum peaked at 40Hz and 80Hz,  which was correct, and now it peaks at 0Hz and 10Hz.  On top of everything, the peaks are much higher than they should be.  I expect peaks with a max of 2.5millivolts and now they are 1volt.  I don't understand what is going on. Nothing changed, but the software version.  Can someone please help me? 

    In addtion to Altenbach's comments - 
    I'd recommend trying another VI function to get the power spectrum for
    your signal to see if the behavior is the same.  You can find some
    examples of VIs using the power spectrum functions using the NI Example
    Finder.
    You can go to LabVIEW's Example Finder by going to Help >> Find Examples.
    Then search for FFT. There should be some results that include FFT and
    Power Spectrum Units.vi, Power Spectrum Measurement.vi, Basic Spectral Measurements.vi,  and Spectrum Measurements.vi. Try opening and
    running these examples to see if the VIs are returning the proper
    results.

  • Signal-to-Noise ratio from Power Spectrum?

    Hi,
    I have a feeling this is a basic issue but for some reason I'm not getting it.  I hope this forum can help.
    I have a Power Spectrum (freq on the x-axis and power on the y-axis) and I am trying to determine the signal to noist ratio of the rf signal live.
    I am using LV 8.5 and have the spectrum toolkit and am using an RFSA in a PXI chassis.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    - rf curious

    Hi Rf Curious,
    This questions does not have a simple
    answer but let me share my thoughts and you can decide what it makes
    most sense for your application. For signal to noise ratio (SNR) you
    should have ideally the power of the signal and divide it by the power
    of the noise. The problem here is that you are looking at both at the
    same time (rf live signal). Depending of what type of signal is it, you
    can recreate it and substract it from the spectrum (you will need to
    recreate the phase and magnitude and delete it from the phase and
    magnitude of the spectrum). This is normally done with simple signals
    such as a tone.
    If you don't have access to the magnitude and
    phase of the data, and you only see the spectrum, then you will have to
    do things different. You can probably measure the power of the signal
    by measuring the power of the band where the signal is located. Then,
    you can terminate your input and measure the power of the noise of the
    instrument (with same attenuation and RBW settings) and have a rough
    estimate. This method should have better results when S >> N. You
    can also take the adjacent channel (or further) noise reference.
    Finally,
    if your signal has a pretty flat spectrum, then you can only take the
    difference between the noise and the signal since they both have the
    same RBW.
    If by now, you have found other methods, feel free to post your ideas here for any other person that come across this problem.

  • Basic accelerometer-power spectrum readings

    Hi all,
    I'm new to Labview and am trying to create a simple power spectrum logger. I've had a look at multiple tutorials but am stuck getting to places (most of the tutorials require sound and vibration toolkit, are really old and incompatible with Labview 2011 etc). The program I'm trying to do is:
    1) Collect signals from accelerometer (4kS/s)
    2) Generate power spectrum
    3) Save to disk (on board the cRIO)
    My setup is:
    - cRIO 9014
    - NI 9234
    - Labview 2011
    So far, I've managed to get the signal readings (XYZ axis) and merge them, put them into a 'Collector' block and then output them to the power spectrum block. I've very crudely used a 'Time Delay' block to set the sample rate (which I know is probably not accurate, but I cannot figure out how else to do it). I'm having a problem figuring out how to input the sample rate into the collector, which is why my power spectrum is giving me 0 to 0.5Hz (it's likely assuming the sample rate is 1Hz). I've attached my .vi.
    Would someone be able to point me to a tutorial/example/alternative solution? Thank you very much in advance.

    I think what you want is the CompactRIO vibration data logger.  It does not require the S&V measurement suite, though you will find it very useful. 
    Check this out!
    http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/6388
    It has a waveform acquisition template for the FPGA.  It has a data logging state design. 
    You can see a Video of it working here

  • Save Power spectrum

    Hi
    I would like to save a power spectrum ( about 80000 lines of data) as a file that i can later plot. When i write the cluster (coming out of FFT Powerspewctrum.vi)  to an excel  (excel works only upt o 56000 or something like that, so i can´t use it anyways) or .txt file using the a combination of open -write -close  file i get weird number and letters and not the data i´d like to have. Which data format ( iwould like to make graphs in origin) and vi´s should i use to export the spectrum or is it the best to extract the y-value of the spectrum (magnitude) using the unbundle by name .vi  and export it as txt?
     Thanks for any help

    I believe this is also something i can use for my application, however, when trying to recreate the code in LabVIEW 2011 SP1, the connections between the For Loop and the Close File return an error that the data types are different.The Path wire returns that the source is 1-D array of byte stream file reference with the sink being byte stream file reference. The Error wire returns that the source is 1-D array of cluster of 3 elements with the sink being a cluster of 3 elements.  How would i go about fixing this?
    I plan on using this to write to the file from an accelerometer connected to a NI-9234 c-series module through a cDAQ-9178 usb chasssis.  So my intention is to use this as a subVI to connect the accelerometer signal from the DAQ Assist of another VI.  I am trying to record the spectral data. Attached is the attempt at recreating your code.

  • Memory leak with Power Spectrum function

    Hi
    I have a memory leak on my application. By observing with the "Desktop Execution Trace Toolkit", the Power Spectrum function (from NI_AALPro.lvlib) seems to have two "Reference leak".
    The first one refers to the function "Open VI reference"; I got around this problem by replacing the "Open VI reference" by an "Initialize" input boolean, but I don't understand the second memory leak.
    Any idea ?
    Thanks...

  • What is the equation for a Low-Sidelo​be Window Function (in Power Spectrum VI)?

    I am trying to find out what is the equation for the Low Sidelobe Window which is mentioned in the Power Spectrum VI. Hanning second sidelobe is around -32dB of the first. What is that for Low Sidelobe?

    The CWT is not equivalent to the discrete dyadic wavelet transform. In theory, the CWT can compute the wavelet coefficient at any positive real scale and any real shift, while the discrete dyadic wavelet transform only includes the dyadic scales (2,4,8,16...). So the formula used to describe the CWT can be referred to the equation in pp.80 in S. Mallat's book.
    In SPT's implementation, the time interval controls the shift in number of samples. The scales indicate the wavelet coefficients at integer scales 1,2,3,...,"scales" are contained in the output scalogram.

  • Need Help related to Power Spectrum of two signal

    Hello Sir, 
    I have two signals of different frequencies but i want to take the FFT power spectrum of both signals at same graph . So for that case i take the FFT power spectrum of both signal indivisualy and after this build the array. so i got the one graph and all the components in same graph. Now
    The problem is that in that graph i want to extract the magnitudes at each frequency, but when i extract the information from final graph it will be the " 1D array of Cluster of 3 Elements" so its information is saprate for these two signal. but i want to tale the magnitude at each frequency , how can i got this sir . Please Help me 
    Agnivesh

    Sir it works thanks but there is one new problem is that wahen i am going to extract the magnitude for every frequency it is also works, but my question is that if my frequency is in floating point then how can i extract magnitude for that frequency. i mean i extracted the magnitude for every frequency component starting from 0 to 1...2..3...4.............so on (Frequency ) but if my frwquency id 2.3Hz so how can i do this.i am sending you my VI also

  • Power Spectrum Density conversion to Time Series Data

    Hi,
    This may seem an odd request but is there a way to convert power spectrum density data back to the time series data that generated it in the first place. I have lost the original time series data but still have the PSD and need the time series to do other analysis.
    Thanks,
    Rhys Williams

    Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there are an infinite number of time series that will generate a given PSD.  You lose all phase information upon taking the PSD.  For this reason I almost always save time domain data, or at least complex FFT values.  

  • Read Text row by row, plot them and find the max of its Power spectrum

  • Switching 2D array for Avg Power Spectrum?

    I have a 4 channel 2D array signal which is now indexed so that I can feed 1 channel to the Avg Power Spectrum. It would be much better to have the switching done by radio buttons instead of wired in the Block Diagram. How are the Radio Buttons positioned between a 2D array and the 1D array required by the Avg Power Spectrum?
    Regards,
    Raymond

    I answered your question here. Since the radio button control is just a numeric control, replace your hard coded indexing with a front panel one. Here's a picture of what I mean.

  • Power Spectrum

    Ok here's the deal.. I acquire data (of type numeric array) from an acuqisition unit (the specifics of it aren't important for the problem) at a known sampling rate and wish to perform a power spectrum on this data. I've used the build waveform function to build a waveform from the 1D array of data with the addition of the dt value (1/Fs) and a timestamp and fed this waveform into the power spectrum vi. The spectrum is then plotted on a waveform chart.
    However each time a new data set arrives from the acuqisition unit, the chart is overwritten.I would like to keep the previous data but would prefer not to use shift registers due to the possible size of the array. I thought if the chart's type was a "strip chart" it would hold the data until the buffer is reached but this doesn't seem to be the case.
    Another possible issue is with the timestamp but I think I've accounted for that.
    Note: The attached vi won't run successfully due to not being connected the the acquisition unit. I was hoping the problem might be clear to someone with more experience using the power spectrum function. I have used it successfully with generic sine waves.

    Strokes,
    you listen to mp3 music from time to time? Maybe, you have configured your application playing those mp3 to display something called "Bars and Waves" (at least, Microsoft calls it like this in Media Player). This display is comparable to an equalizer view.
    Your display of the power spectrum analysis is really comparable to this
    Does it make sense that the graph does not replace (read: update) instead of "concatenating"?
