  • @sealedwings6788
    @sealedwings6788 5 років тому +1

    Nice vid! Nonetheless, I have one question: in the video you state that z=r*e^(jw), but (please correct me if I'm wrong) the euler identity is that e^(j*ANGLE)=fasor, so one should say that z=r*e^(j*(w*t)), where t is time. z is a fasor of radius r and angular velocity w, and that's why you can have a sinusoidal signal if you plot that on time.

    • @PunmasterSTP
      @PunmasterSTP 2 роки тому

      I know it's been a few years but I just came across your comment and was curious. Since z is just a complex number and not a time-varying function, I don't think you'd want to put a t (or n) in it's definition. Therefore it would just be z = r*e^(jw) and not z = r*e^(jwt) or z = r*e^(jwn). We can still apply Euler's formula, since the argument of the exponential is complex, and get that z = r*e^(jw) = r*(cos(w) + j*sin(w)). However, if we're thinking about *powers* of z, where z is raised to -n, then we'd get that z^(-n) = (r*e^(jw))^(-n) = r^(-n) * (e^(jw))^(-n) = r^(-n) * e^(-jwn) = r^(-n) * (cos(-wn) + j*sin(-wn)). And since cosine is an even function and sine is odd, that would be equivalent to r^(-n) * (cos(wn) - j*sin(wn)).

  • @Zuwwar
    @Zuwwar 6 років тому

    Great video about the insight what Z-Tx is actually doing, however, I do have this question; at 11:24, the animation of the sinusoid shows an oscillating signal with some frequency when z is almost equal to -1+0j. Shouldn't the signal at this point have zero frequency because of the imaginary part equal to zero?

    • @ddorran

      If z is a constant 0.8 then the signal z^-n is the sequence {0.8^0 0.8^-1 0.8^-2 0.8^-3 ...} = { 1 1.2500 1.5625 1.9531 2.4414 ....}

    Good video but I am confuzzled... at 4 minutes you say [1,1,1...] is a DC signal, which you use for the two sets of correlations. Then at just before 5 minutes you say the outcome of the correlation is 0, which indicates there is no DC component present in the signal, which I sort of took to mean, no DC input components, but that makes no sense... or does it? or did you mean the output signal?

    @AdityaPrasad007 5 років тому

    Almost 10/10 in terms of content, crisply delivered, great ideas, you were clear on how r^-n controls the exponential growth or decay, I wish you had talked about why we have BOTH a cos and a sin in (cos(wn)-sin(wn)), together they contribute to the oscillation, one would be enough if we just wanted oscillating decay. like the second term is just phase shifted version. Maybe something to do with how together those two form an orthogonal basis? The phase shifting seems to encode the information regarding which direction of the imaginary axis that frequency is selected. It's not clear at all to me and I hope anyone who decides to use david's great video as a template decides to go a bit deeper in that.
    I think it might have been better to think of the complex part as a complex phasor spinning at a rate of w Hz rather than as the seperate cos or sin terms.
    If I did not know 3b1b I would not know what levels of animation is possible, so I have higher expectations from you. Still Thanks so much.

    • @ddorran
      @ddorran  5 років тому +1

      You basically need the cosine and sine to capture sinusoidal oscillations of any phase shift. We can represent a sinusoidally oscillating waveform mathematically as Acos(wt + p), where p is the phase shift. Such a waveform is also equal to (Acos(p))cos(wt) - (Asin(p))sin(wt). Hope this helps.

    Professor David Dorran,
    I´m looking for chirp z-transform (CZT). How does it work? Where and when I need to use? Could you explain a little bit about this or indicate some book (or site) to study? Thank you very much. Best regards.

    • @ddorran
      @ddorran  8 років тому

      I haven't used the CZT before. I did some reading on it when you made the post and from that would suggest that you first make sure you understand the DFT (which effectively analyses signals against a set of sinusoidal basis functions) and then try to appreciate the view of the DFT as being a sampled version of the Z-plane around the unit circle (This video might help with that - but its not explicitly clear I have to say).
      From my brief reading the CZT is similar to the DFT except that can be determined by sampling the Z-plane along a path that corresponds to points that ensure that the ratio of the damping factor to frequency are maintained as a constant. This corresponds to points that lie on a straight line in the s-plane if you were to map these points from the z-plane on to the s-plane.
      The DFT can be viewed as a special case of the CZT since the unit circle in the z-plane maps on to the imaginary axis in the s-plane i.e. a straight line but the damping factor is zero in the case of the DFT.

    • @andreregis13
      @andreregis13 8 років тому

      Professor, thanks for the fast answer. I think that the link for the video did not come. I would appreciate if you could put it again. I really need to understand how does it work. I need to use the vectors produced by CZT , DFT and maybe Walsh transform comparing the results in process that I am developing to calculate active power. Best regards.
