  2. Phasor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phasor

    The complex constant, which depends on amplitude and phase, is known as a phasor, or complex amplitude, [4] [5] and (in older texts) sinor [6] or even complexor. [ 6 ] A common application is in the steady-state analysis of an electrical network powered by time varying current where all signals are assumed to be sinusoidal with a common frequency.

  3. Phase (waves) - Wikipedia

    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 ...

    The field produced by a single-phase winding can provide energy to a motor already rotating, but without auxiliary mechanisms the motor will not accelerate from a stop. A rotating magnetic field of steady amplitude requires that all three phase currents be equal in magnitude, and accurately displaced one-third of a cycle in phase.

  5. In-phase and quadrature components - Wikipedia

    The two amplitude-modulated sinusoids are known as the in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) components, which describes their relationships with the amplitude- and phase-modulated carrier. [ A ] [ 2 ] Or in other words, it is possible to create an arbitrarily phase-shifted sine wave, by mixing together two sine waves that are 90° out of phase in ...

    Otherwise it is called unwrapped phase, which is a continuous function of argument t, assuming s a (t) is a continuous function of t. Unless otherwise indicated, the continuous form should be inferred. Instantaneous phase vs time. The function has two true discontinuities of 180° at times 21 and 59, indicative of amplitude zero-crossings.

  8. Propagation constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagation_constant

    In electromagnetic theory, the phase constant, also called phase change constant, parameter or coefficient is the imaginary component of the propagation constant for a plane wave. It represents the change in phase per unit length along the path traveled by the wave at any instant and is equal to the real part of the angular wavenumber of the wave.

  9. Numerically controlled oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerically_controlled...

    The phase-amplitude converter creates the sample-domain waveform from the truncated phase output word received from the PA. The PAC can be a simple read only memory containing 2 M contiguous samples of the desired output waveform which typically is a sinusoid. Often though, various tricks are employed to reduce the amount of memory required.
