Sweep

Description

The signal generator block sweep can generate logarithmic or linear types of sweeps. The sweeps are designed in the frequency domain according to Transfer-Function Measurements with Sweeps by Müller and Massarani.

Mx1

Output

The output is a single dimension Mx1 sweep.

Name

Name specifies the name of the block.

Sample rate

Sample rate is the sample rate of the sweep.

Start

Start specifies when the sweep 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 sweep from start in either s, ms or samples.

Amplitude

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

Type

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

Phase-in

Phase-in is the sweeps starting frequency. The sweep will not be white or pink in the frequency domain, dependent on type, at this frequency.

Start frequency

Start frequency is the frequency where the sweep starts being white or pink in the frequency domain.

Stop frequency

Stop frequency is the frequency where the sweeps stop being white or pink in the frequency domain.

Phase-out

Phase out is the sweeps stopping frequency.

Outputs

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