I need some help converting the Matlab FFT output into
equivalent RMS levels for signal analysis.
I have numerical data from an oscilloscope that has three
primary frequencies: these are a DC component and two
separate frequencies. I can calculate the RMS of the
composite signal with a bit of integration and the use of
the RMS defintion.
The FFT routine identifies the equivalent power at the
discrete frequencies with the Matlab FFT algorithm. I am
plotting the frequency vs. the FFT * the conjugate of the
FFT to obtain the power signal. For the n point data
acquisition, I am doing the following to obtain the power:
Y = fft(v,n);
Pyy = Y.*conj(Y)/n ;
Does someone out there know how to extract the equivalent
RMS components of the other frequency content?
best regards
J. Costello
