  2. Phase (waves) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_(waves)

    Conversely, a phase reversal or phase inversion implies a 180-degree phase shift. [ 2 ] When the phase difference φ ( t ) {\displaystyle \varphi (t)} is a quarter of turn (a right angle, +90° = π/2 or −90° = 270° = −π/2 = 3π/2 ), sinusoidal signals are sometimes said to be in quadrature , e.g., in-phase and quadrature components of a ...

  3. Phase angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_angle

    Phase angle may refer to: Phase (waves), the angular displacement of a sinusoid from a reference point or time; Phasor angle, angular component of the complex number representation of a sinusoid; Analytic representation phase, instantaneous phase of an analytic signal representation; Phase angle (astronomy), the angle between the incident light ...

  4. Three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power

    The phase angle difference between voltage and current of each phase is not necessarily 0 and depends on the type of load impedance, Z y. Inductive and capacitive loads will cause current to either lag or lead the voltage. However, the relative phase angle between each pair of lines (1 to 2, 2 to 3, and 3 to 1) will still be −120°.

  5. Instantaneous phase and frequency - Wikipedia

    where ω > 0. = (+), = +.In this simple sinusoidal example, the constant θ is also commonly referred to as phase or phase offset.φ(t) is a function of time; θ is not. In the next example, we also see that the phase offset of a real-valued sinusoid is ambiguous unless a reference (sin or cos) is specified.

  6. Chirp spectrum - Wikipedia

    They have a phase angle close to a value of π /4 within the chirp range / and they only start to change significantly for frequencies beyond this range. Consequently, for frequencies within the sweep range of the chirp, it is the square-law phase term Φ 1( ω ) and its group delay function ( = -d Φ 1/d( ω ) ) that are of most interest.

  7. Angular frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_frequency

    A sphere rotating around an axis. Points farther from the axis move faster, satisfying ω = v / r.. In physics, angular frequency (symbol ω), also called angular speed and angular rate, is a scalar measure of the angle rate (the angle per unit time) or the temporal rate of change of the phase argument of a sinusoidal waveform or sine function (for example, in oscillations and waves).

  8. Leading and lagging current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leading_and_Lagging_Current

    Angle notation can easily describe leading and lagging current: . [1] In this equation, the value of theta is the important factor for leading and lagging current. As mentioned in the introduction above, leading or lagging current represents a time shift between the current and voltage sine curves, which is represented by the angle by which the curve is ahead or behind of where it would be ...

  9. Phase modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_modulation

    Phase modulation (PM) is a modulation pattern for conditioning communication signals for transmission. It encodes a message signal as variations in the instantaneous phase of a carrier wave. Phase modulation is one of the two principal forms of angle modulation, together with frequency modulation.
