Chirp

Description

The signal generator block chirp can generate logarithmic or linear types of chirps based on a start and stop frequency. This is a great stimuli to use with SAFEs loudspeaker response tool.

Mx1

Output

The output is a single dimension Mx1 chirp.

Name

Name specifies the name of the block.

Sample rate

Sample rate is the sample rate of the chirp.

Start

Start specifies when the chirp should start. If start is above 0 s the start is zeropadded accordingly. The start can be defined in either s, ms or samples.

Length

Length specifies the length of the chirp from start in either s, ms or samples.

Amplitude

Amplitude is the amplitude (Peak) of the chirp. As the signal is generated on the computer the unit is defined as FS.

Type

Type is the chirp type. It can either be logarithmic or linear.

Start Frequency

Start frequency is the frequency where the chirp starts.

Stop Frequency

Stop frequency is the frequency where the chirp stops.

Outputs

Outputs specifies the number of output(s) the block will have. Each output will output the same chirp.
