Resolution of NCO as a digital clock
I have a question regarding the resolution of Numerically Controlled Oscillator where the most significant bit is being used as the digital clock. I am not including the phase look-up table where the ...

In Costas receiver for DSBSC, How the DC voltage affects the phase of the voltage controlled oscillator, not its frequency?
Simon Haykin, Communication Systems, chapter 3, Costas Loop. The frequency of the local oscillator is assumed to be the same as the carrier frequency, the difference is only in the phase shift. The DC ...

pseudo-periodic time series with stochastic period and amplitude
Pardon the less-than-accurate terminology (signal processing is not my field), but I have a time series that shows a pretty clear oscillating pattern between minima and maxima, although it is ...

Specific de-trending method for damped oscillation?
Say I have a set signals consisting of damped harmonic oscillations, that I want to extract the characteristics of with the prony method. In the datasets I'm working with, it is possible for these ...

Wavelet signal analysis approach for multi-mode, noisy signal
I have a signal that I am trying to analyze via Matlab's CWT functions. The signal has two distinct oscillating components and I would like to extract the decay factor from each of them. Here is what ...

Phase Noise and Multi-carrier Frequency conversion
I have a oscillator with a phase noise mask that was represented in dBc at specific offsets from a carrier. Two options for a multicarrier signal going into a converter, apply the phase noise mask (...

Adding phase noise to a signal results in amplitude variation on a constellation - whats the mistake? *plots inside*
I am attempting to add phase noise to a modulated signal. I am doing this by taking a phase noise mask (single sided 0 Hz to 1 MHz), which shows dBc values away from central value or reference value. ...
