How to determine the bandwidth of a particular frequency in Labview?

Hallo,
After i determined the frequency of a signal, i want to measure the bandwidth of this frequency. how can i do that in labview? is there a block which can calculate it directly?
thanks in advance..

If I remember correctly, the BANDWIDTH is defined as the frequency distance between the -3dB points, relative to the peak.
It's not correct to say "the bandwidth of a frequency", you measure the bandwidth of some process, say an amplifier or a filter.
If you have a spectrum sweep of this filter, then you just measure the peak amplitude and look on both sides for the places where it crosses the 3dB down amplitudes.  The difference between those frequencies is your bandwidth.
If it's a narrow bandwidth, you'll have to pay attention to how FFT works or you won't get a good answer from an FFT.  If your FFT frequency resolution is low, your precision will be low as well.
I don't think there are any canned solutions for you.

  • How to determine the latency time?

    Hi
    How do I determine the latency time?
    I need to connect 3 CAN nodes onto the CAN bus and need to know how to determine the delay(latency) time needed between the transmission of a message from one node and reception at the other,
    The latency time and Bandwidth both play a role in the transmission, right?
    Thanks
    Ekta

    Hi Ekta,
    The software you need if you are using an NI board is NI-CAN, and you can look at the driver download page for the appropriate version for your operating system. I'll suggest you take a look at the example programs that install with that driver to get you started. If you are developing using LabVIEW or LabWindows/CVI, go to Help>>Find Examples>>Hardware Input and Output>>CAN for examples. If you are using Visual Basic or C, go to ...\National Instruments\NI-CAN for examples. I have also attached a LabVIEW example below that shows how to enable self reception.
    If you are using another vendor's CAN board, you will need to install their driver, and see if they have any examples to get you started. I assume the approach for measuring the latency will be similar to what I suggested. Hope this helps. Goodluck!

  • How to determine network bandwidth for EP 6.0 implementation

    Hi
         can you please guide me how to determine the network bandwith requirment for SAP EP6.0 implementation for smoother operation
    Thanks & Regards
    Ashutosh

    Hi Ashutosh,
    luckily network bandwidth is mostly not a problem as long as it is not very small, e.g. a modem dial-up 56kbps connection on client side. To make sure that the server side outgoing line is strong enough, you'd need to do some math and calculate from the expected request volume how much bandwidth you'd need. Some guidance might be taken out of the how to paper under this link:
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/documents/a1-8-4/how to perform sap enterprise portal load testing.zip.
    Check chapter 2.4 in the pdf file.
    For "smooth operation" you'd need network wise not only worry about bandwidth but also about network latency times and sometimes network quality in regard to % package losses or similar. If your end users are more then 1000 miles away you usualy start seeing response time increases from latency times...
    The impacts of networking on performance are many, but so are the tuning possibilities. If you have a lot of end-users accessing EP over a WAN, perhaps even over the Internet, and if they do so over long distance you might want to make EP landscape WAN tuning a dedicated task in your project.
    In addition the network requirements of Portal are discussed in this paper : http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000757275&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000112&_OBJECT=011000358700003943521999E , chapter  3.5.2 Enterprise Portal.

  • How to determine the ROWNUM in a Master Detail Form

    Hello,
    I am working in a Master Detail Form with Orders and Order Items Information; and I created a process that allows the users to select a Product ID on a tabular form, and the next column is populated automatically with the Product Description.
    To achieve that, I followed some instructions by Denes Kubicek (http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:241), but my case is slightly different:
    <ul>I am using a wizard-created tabular form, instead of a manual tabular form; and </ul>
    <ul>Instead of using another page as a Popup to pass the parameter of the ROWNUM, I am using a plug-in called “Tabular Form Super LOV” which is a modified version of the SkillBuilders’ Super LOV that works on Tabular Forms. </ul>
    The Product ID is returned in the correct row by the plug-in; but in the case of the Product Description, it is always returned into the first row; and my problem is that I don't know how to determine the row where the user clicked to call the plug-in.
    I set up an example in apex.oracle.com in case someone would like to look at it:
    Workspace: ediazjorge
    Username: test
    Password: test
    App Name: Sample App
    App Number: 1550
    BTW, I am using Apex 4.1.1.00.23 and Oracle DB 10.3.2.
    Thanks in advance,
    Erick

    Hello VC,
    Thank you for your time and help.
    Unfortunately, it is still not working properly:
    1. When the Popup LOV opens, the first row of the tabular form is 0, the second row is 1, and so on. How can I assign the values starting with 1 and in the format *0001* ? (I am still a novice on Apex and new to JavaScript :-), sorry about that).
    --2. Also, when I close the Popup LOV, the value of P1_ROWNUM is ‘undefined’ again so I'm not sure if the Product Name column will be populated.--
    3. And finally, you are using the jQuery Selector uPopupLOVIcon, which is an attribute of the Cloudy Theme. In my real application (Apex 4.1.1.00.26), my element looks like: *<img src="/i/lov_16x16.gif" width="16" height="16" alt="Popup Lov" alt="List" style="vertical-align:middle;" align="middle" />*. What do you recommend me to use as a jQuery Selector?
    Again, I really appreciate your help and time. I think you solved the most difficult part.
    Thank you so much,
    Erick
    Update: I just found out that the problem with my comment 2 is because I didn’t delete the previous dynamic action that set the value to P1_ROWNUM.

  • How to determine the mount point for directory /tmp ?

    Folks,
    Hello. I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC using 2 Virtual Machines (rac1 and rac2 whose OS are Oracle Linux 5.6) in VMPlayer and according to the tutorial
    http://appsdbaworkshop.blogspot.com/2011/10/11gr2-rac-on-linux-56-using-vmware.html
    I am installing Grid infrastructure. I am on step 7 of 10 (verify Grid installation enviroment) and get this error:
    "Free Space: Rac2: /tmp"
    Cause: Could not determine mount point for location specified.
    Action: Ensure location specified is available.
    Expected value: n/a
    Actual value: n/a
    I have checked the free space using the command:
    [root@Rac2 /]# df -k /tmp
    Output:
    Filesystem     1k-blocks     used     Available     Use%     Mounted on
    /dev/sda1     30470144     7826952     21070432     28%     /
    As you see above, the free space is enough, but could not determine mount point for /tmp.
    Do any folk understand how to determine the mount point for directory /tmp ?
    Thanks.

    I have just checked "/home/oracle/.bash_profile". But in my computer, there is no "oracle" under /home directory.Is this your first time Linux and Oracle installation? I had a brief look at your referenced link. The reason why you do not find a "oracle" user is because the instructions use "ora11g" instead, which, btw, is not standard. The directories of your installation and your installation source can be somewhat different from known standards and you will have to adjust it to your system.
    My best guess is that you have either missed something in the instructions or you need to ask the author of the blog what is wrong. The chance to find someone here who has experience with these custom instructions is probably unlikely.
    I suggest you try to locate the cluster verification tool, which should be in the bin directory of your grid installation. Alternatively you might want to check the RAC, ASM & Clusterware Installation forum: RAC, ASM & Clusterware Installation

  • How to determine the field size

    I am going to make a multiplatform application that hopefully
    will run on linux and windows 2000.If the os is 2000, then I will use
    vb.net/aspx else I'll use java servlets. I make the connection
    to the web server ( through HTTP) not directly to database server.
    So, the resultset will be stored in the String object. The columns
    will be separated by delimeter. Our problem is how to determine
    the size and type of the fields of mssql,oracle and postgres database
    so that we can include it in the String object.
    Ex.
    String sResultSet=new String();
    ResultSet rs=statement.executeQuery(sSQL);
    while(rs.next()){
    sResultset=sResultSet + rs.getString(field1) + "||" + rs.getString(field2) + "||";
    vertical bars acts as delimeter
    supposedly this is the code:
    sResultset=sResultSet + rs.getString(field1) +"_" + rs.getFieldType() + "_"+
    rs.getFieldSize() + "||" + rs.getString(field2) +"_" + rs.getFieldType() + "_"+
    rs.getFieldSize() + "||";
    supposedly this is the code if rs.getFieldType() and rs.getFieldSize() methods are existing
    Anyone can give me an idea how to get the field type and field size of the database?
    thanks in advance

    Yes, but I dont know how to do it.
    Can you give me an example of using it.
    Thanks in advance

  • How to determine the type of the jobject... similar to instanceof

    hi,
    I would like to know how to determine the jobject reference of an instance is of which class.
    this is something similar to instanceof we use in java.
    is there any thing like 'instanceof' in JNI. if there how to use it?
    i got this as objective question for which answers were(i do not remember exactly)
    1.instanceof
    2.assignedto
    i could nt het much help in googling.
    thanks in advance

    Hi
    The JNI provides a native version to the java instanceof operator, this function takes two arguments
    an object refrence and a class refrence and reports JNI_TRUE.
    jclass myclass = env->FindClass("your class name");
    if(env->IsInstanceOf(obj,myclass) == JNI_TRUE)
    // obj is of type myclass
    }Regards

  • How to determine the solution's ID in absl?

    Hello Community,
    I have a simple question yet I fear there is no simple answer (possibly no answer at all).
    The question is:
    Does any body know ways how to determine the ID (e.g. Y123ABCDY_) of the solution the code is running in?
    My use case is the following:
    We have a solution template which will be deployed in different customer tenant.
    Thus, each deployment will have a different solution ID.
    Now, somewhere in code, we generat PDFs using the OutputManagementUtilities.GetPDF reuse library.
    This method requires the form template code of the pdf to be generated as a parameter.
    However, this PDF form template code is composed of the solution ID and a fixed suffix.
    Thus, currently I need to modify the absl code in each customer installation to manually modify the form template code prefix to the solutions solution ID.
    Therefore I'd like to construct the form template code in absl but for this I need a way to determine the solution's ID.
    Any ideas?
    Best regards,
    Ludger

    Hi Fernando.
    After reading your post I initially thought "what is the ObjectTypeCode" supposed to do any good to determine the solution ID"?
    Using the Object Type code of a custom bo is indeed a way to solve this problem.
    With a little additional code I can extract the relevant solution ID part from there.
    Thanks for the hint, that was really useful.
    Best reegards,

  • How to determine the maximum allowable length of a filename for Window ?

    Hi all,
    Could I know how to determine the allowable file length (the length of the absolute path) for a file in Window environment?
    Due to some reason, I generated a zip file with a very long filename ( > 170) and put in a folder(the length of the folder path around 90). The length of the absolute path is around 260.
    I used FileOutputStream with the ZipOutputStream to write out the zip file. Everything is working fine while i generating the zip file.
    However, while i try to extract some files from the zip file i just created, i encountered the error
    java.util.zip.ZipException The filename is too long.
    I am using the class ZipFile to extract the files from the zip file like the following
    String absPath = "A very long filepath which exceed 260";
    ZipFile zipF = new ZipFile(absPath);  //<-- here is the root causeIs it possible to pre-determine the maximum allowable filepath length prior i generate the zip file ? This is weird since i got no error while i created the zip file, but have problem in extracting the zip file ......
    Thanks

    Assuming you could determine the max, what would you do about it? I'd say you should just assume it will be successful, but accommodate (handle) the possible exception gracefully. Either way you're going to have to handle it as an "exception", whether you "catch" an actual "Exception" object and deal with that, or manually deal with the length exceeding the max.
