How to compute phase of the signal?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the feasibility of computing the phases of three individual signals from the phase spectrum or equation of a composite main signal. It is established that if the three signals are not of known functional forms, unique computation of their phases is not possible. The conversation also touches on the implications of phase information in signal processing, emphasizing the importance of functional forms in determining phase relationships.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of signal processing concepts, particularly phase spectrum analysis.
  • Familiarity with composite signal equations and their components.
  • Knowledge of functional forms of signals and their mathematical representations.
  • Basic principles of Fourier analysis and signal decomposition.
NEXT STEPS
  • Research methods for signal decomposition using Fourier transforms.
  • Learn about phase retrieval techniques in signal processing.
  • Explore the implications of phase information in communication systems.
  • Study the mathematical properties of composite signals and their individual components.
USEFUL FOR

Signal processing engineers, students studying electrical engineering, and researchers focusing on phase analysis in composite signals will benefit from this discussion.

Suppose you are given a phase
spectrum or (/and) equation of the (main) signal only and you are said that the given (main) signal is
formed of 3 other signals.
Is it possible to compute phases of these three signals from the
equation or (/ and) phase
spectrum of the (main) signal?
Also,what information is containedin the phases of these signals?

Note : You can take any equation
of your choice.but just not take
equation of sum of 3 signal
functions. at least mix 2 signal
functions together
 
I'm not sure what you are asking - are the 3 signals of known functional form? If not, then this cannot be done uniquely.

By the way, the last part of your post makes this sound like a homework question. Is it?
