The SWEEP function returns the results of a regular sine wave function with increasing linear frequency.
Format
Arguments definition
|
Independent variable for the SWEEP function • This variable must be time, a real number, or a function that returns a real number. |
|
Sine function wave |
|
Starting point of the SWEEP function (x value) |
|
Initial sine function frequency |
|
Ending point of the SWEEP function (x value) |
|
Ending frequency of the sine function |
|
Range in which the SWEEP function is fully active |
Formulation
Example
SWEEP(time , 1.0 , 0.0 , 0.0 , 0.5 , 100.0 , 0.1)
• x = time: Independent variable.
• a = 1.0: The amplitude of the sinusoidal function.
• x0 = 0.0: X-value at which the SWEEP function begins.
• f0 = 0.0: Initial frequency of the sinusoidal function.
• x1 = 0.5: X-value at which the SWEEP function ends.
• f1 = 100.0: Final frequency of the sinusoidal function.
• dx = 0.1: Interval value of X-value in which the SWEEP function is fully active.
