How to convert time domaine signal into frequency domain signal

AI Thread Summary
Time domain signals represent how a signal changes over time, while frequency domain signals show how much of the signal lies within each given frequency band. To convert between these domains, transform methods such as Fourier Transform are commonly used. The discussion highlights the importance of understanding various transform methods, including Integral and Discrete transforms, and when to apply them based on the specific signal characteristics. A user is seeking advice on processing noise from an accelerometer sensor and how to programmatically detect and remove this noise using LABView. The conversation emphasizes the need for collaboration and learning from others in the field of signal processing.

Hi,

I am new to signal theory and don't know what is time domaine signal and frequency domaine signal. Please some can explaine me clearly and how can we convert between those two domaines.
I read the topic in wikipedia which makes me somepart clear but interested to know more.

You have a Masters in electronics...
 
I like this topic of Signals and the way each signal can be represented mathematically. To your question the first thing that comes to my mind is Transform Methods. But my question is, when do you use all these transform methods. The ones I came across on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_transforms" are Integral transforms and Discrete transforms and Discrete-time transforms and Data-dependent transforms and Other transforms. Now, when do you have to use all of these transforms, do you use it on any particular occasion?

Yes, i worked with them long ago. After three years again i came around here. I am using them in LABView. I have a signal that consists of noise which has taken from accelerometer sensor. The sensor is attached to a motor which has noise when the stroke touches near by mechanical part. I am going to attach the two pictures that i taken when noise frequencies are affected the original. I don't know how to proceed that the writing program should detet the these noise by seeing that noise picture and take the decision to remove that noise.

Please give me some ideas.

I am doing masters that means i need to listen to some other talented people. It is not that i know everything.

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
