Phasors Addition of same-frequency sinusoidal functions involves factoring out the time dependance and simply adding the phasor amplitudes. Addition of difference frequency sinusoidal function is often simplified by factoring out a sinusoidal component at the average frequency.

We observe electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT), slow and stored light in hot rubidium vapor. For example, a 6 µs Gaussian pulse 1 propagate at a velocity of 1kms− (to be compared with the normal velocity 1 ∼ of 300 000 km s− ). Dynamic changes of the control parameter allows us to slow down a pulse to a complete stop, store it for 100 µs, and then release it. During the storage time, and also during the release∼ process, some properties of the light pulse can be changed, e.g., frequency chirping of the pulse is obtained by means of Zeeman shifting the energy levels of the Λ-system. If, bichromatic continuous light fields are applied we observe overtone generation in the beating signal, and a narrow ‘dip’ in overtone generation efficiency on two-photon resonance, narrower than the ‘coherent population trapping’ transparency.

  • About the Phasor Pathways in Analogical Amplitude Modulations
    About the Phasor Pathways in Analogical Amplitude Modulations H.M. de Oliveira1, F.D. Nunes1 ABSTRACT Phasor diagrams have long been used in Physics and Engineering. In telecommunications, this is particularly useful to clarify how the modulations work. This paper addresses rotating phasor pathways derived from different standard Amplitude Modulation Systems (e.g. A3E, H3E, J3E, C3F). A cornucopia of algebraic curves is then derived assuming a single tone or a double tone modulation signal. The ratio of the frequency of the tone modulator (fm) and carrier frequency (fc) is considered in two distinct cases, namely: fm/fc<1 and fm/fc 1. The geometric figures are some sort of Lissajours figures. Different shapes appear looking like epicycloids (including cardioids), rhodonea curves, Lemniscates, folium of Descartes or Lamé curves. The role played by the modulation index is elucidated in each case. Keyterms: Phasor diagram, AM, VSB, Circular harmonics, algebraic curves, geometric figures. 1. Introduction Classical analogical modulations are a nearly exhausted subject, a century after its introduction. The first approach to the subject typically relies on the case of transmission of a single tone (for the sake of simplicity) and establishes the corresponding phasor diagram. This furnishes a straightforward interpretation, which is quite valuable, especially with regard to illustrating the effects of the modulation index, overmodulation effects, and afterward, distinctions between AM and NBFM. Often this presentation is rather naïf. Nice applets do exist to help the understanding of the phasor diagram [1- 4]. However ... Without further target, unpretentiously, we start a deeper investigating the dynamic phasor diagram with the aim of building applets or animations that illustrates the temporal variation of the magnitude of the amplitude modulated phasor.

  • Correspondence Between Phasor Transforms and Frequency Response Function in Rlc Circuits
    CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN PHASOR TRANSFORMS AND FREQUENCY RESPONSE FUNCTION IN RLC CIRCUITS Hassan Mohamed Abdelalim Abdalla Polytechnic Department of Engineering and Architecture, University of Studies of Udine, 33100 Udine, Italy. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The analysis of RLC circuits is usually made by considering phasor transforms of sinusoidal signals (characterized by constant amplitude, period and phase) that allow the calculation of the AC steady state of RLC circuits by solving simple algebraic equations. In this paper I try to show that phasor representation of RLC circuits is analogue to consider the frequency response function (commonly designated by FRF) of the total impedance of the circuit. In this way I derive accurate expressions for the resonance and anti-resonance frequencies and their corresponding values of impedances of the parallel and series RLC circuits respectively, notwithstanding the presence of damping effects. Keywords: Laplace transforms, phasors, Frequency response function, RLC circuits. 1. Introduction and mathematical background RLC circuits have many applications as oscillator circuits described by a second-order differential equation. The three circuit elements, resistor R, inductor L and capacitor C can be combined in different manners. All three elements in series or in parallel are the simplest and most straightforward to analyze. RLC circuits are analyzed mathematically in the phasor domain instead of solving differential equations in the time domain. Generally, a time-dependent sinusoidal function is expressed in the following way è [1]: () (1.1) where is the amplitude, is the angular frequency and is the initial phase of . () = sin ( + ) The medium value of is given by: () () (1.2) 1 2 = |()| = where is the period of the sinusoidal function .

  • Frequency Response = K − Ml
    Frequency Response 1. Introduction We will examine the response of a second order linear constant coefficient system to a sinusoidal input. We will pay special attention to the way the output changes as the frequency of the input changes. This is what we mean by the frequency response of the system. In particular, we will look at the amplitude response and the phase response; that is, the amplitude and phase lag of the system’s output considered as functions of the input frequency. In O.4 the Exponential Input Theorem was used to find a particular solution in the case of exponential or sinusoidal input. Here we will work out in detail the formulas for a second order system. We will then interpret these formulas as the frequency response of a mechanical system. In particular, we will look at damped-spring-mass systems. We will study carefully two cases: first, when the mass is driven by pushing on the spring and second, when the mass is driven by pushing on the dashpot. Both these systems have the same form p(D)x = q(t), but their amplitude responses are very different. This is because, as we will see, it can make physical sense to designate something other than q(t) as the input. For example, in the system mx0 + bx0 + kx = by0 we will consider y to be the input. (Of course, y is related to the expression on the right- hand-side of the equation, but it is not exactly the same.) 2. Sinusoidally Driven Systems: Second Order Constant Coefficient DE’s We start with the second order linear constant coefficient (CC) DE, which as we’ve seen can be interpreted as modeling a damped forced harmonic oscillator.

  • Complex Numbers and Phasor Technique
    RaoApp-Av3.qxd 12/18/03 5:44 PM Page 779 APPENDIX A Complex Numbers and Phasor Technique In this appendix, we discuss a mathematical technique known as the phasor technique, pertinent to operations involving sinusoidally time-varying quanti- ties.The technique simplifies the solution of a differential equation in which the steady-state response for a sinusoidally time-varying excitation is to be deter- mined, by reducing the differential equation to an algebraic equation involving phasors. A phasor is a complex number or a complex variable. We first review complex numbers and associated operations. A complex number has two parts: a real part and an imaginary part. Imag- inary numbers are square roots of negative real numbers. To introduce the con- cept of an imaginary number, we define 2-1 = j (A.1a) or ;j 2 =-1 (A.1b) 1 2 Thus, j5 is the positive square root of -25, -j10 is the negative square root of -100, and so on.A complex number is written in the form a + jb, where a is the real part and b is the imaginary part. Examples are 3 + j4 -4 + j1 -2 - j2 2 - j3 A complex number is represented graphically in a complex plane by using Rectangular two orthogonal axes, corresponding to the real and imaginary parts, as shown in form Fig.A.1, in which are plotted the numbers just listed. Since the set of orthogonal axes resembles the rectangular coordinate axes, the representation a + jb is 1 2 known as the rectangular form. 779 RaoApp-Av3.qxd 12/18/03 5:44 PM Page 780 780 Appendix A Complex Numbers and Phasor Technique Imaginary (3 ϩ j4) 4 (Ϫ4 ϩ j1) 1 Ϫ2 2 Ϫ 4 0 3 Real Ϫ2 (Ϫ2 Ϫj2) Ϫ3 Ϫ FIGURE A.1 (2 j3) Graphical representation of complex numbers in rectangular form.

  • Resonance Beyond Frequency-Matching
    Resonance Beyond Frequency-Matching Zhenyu Wang (王振宇)1, Mingzhe Li (李明哲)1,2, & Ruifang Wang (王瑞方)1,2* 1 Department of Physics, Xiamen University, Xiamen 361005, China. 2 Institute of Theoretical Physics and Astrophysics, Xiamen University, Xiamen 361005, China. *Corresponding author. [email protected] Resonance, defined as the oscillation of a system when the temporal frequency of an external stimulus matches a natural frequency of the system, is important in both fundamental physics and applied disciplines. However, the spatial character of oscillation is not considered in the definition of resonance. In this work, we reveal the creation of spatial resonance when the stimulus matches the space pattern of a normal mode in an oscillating system. The complete resonance, which we call multidimensional resonance, is a combination of both the spatial and the conventionally defined (temporal) resonance and can be several orders of magnitude stronger than the temporal resonance alone. We further elucidate that the spin wave produced by multidimensional resonance drives considerably faster reversal of the vortex core in a magnetic nanodisk. Our findings provide insight into the nature of wave dynamics and open the door to novel applications. I. INTRODUCTION Resonance is a universal property of oscillation in both classical and quantum physics[1,2]. Resonance occurs at a wide range of scales, from subatomic particles[2,3] to astronomical objects[4]. A thorough understanding of resonance is therefore crucial for both fundamental research[4-8] and numerous related applications[9-12]. The simplest resonance system is composed of one oscillating element, for instance, a pendulum. Such a simple system features a single inherent resonance frequency.
