Standard spectral analysis combines all the samples in the signal and produces a single 2D graph showing the average power It is often more informative to plot the logarithm of the power rather than its linear value, since this makes it easier to detect low (but still significant) power components. Short signals can be zero-padded to fill them out to the length required for a particular resolution, but this of course reduces the overall power values that the FFT reports. The FFT algorithm only works on data chunks which are a power-of-two samples in length (e.g. The number of frequency bands is determined by the number of samples passed to the FFT routine – there are exactly half-as-many-plus-one bands as there are samples, so the greater the number of samples passed to the algorithm, the higher the frequency resolution. The algorithm produces a set of equally-spaced frequency bands in a range from 0 (DC) to the Nyquist frequency (half the sampling frequency), and tells us how much power there is within each of these band. to produce a sequence of sample values and these are then passed through the fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm.

This turns the signal into a series of numbers representing the amplitude of the signal at discrete time intervals set by the sample rate of the ADC. The signal is first digitized Analog (continuous-time and continuous-amplitude) signals are digitized by passing them through an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). Spectral analysis is a technique which estimates the power There is a lot of inconsistency in the literature in how power is expressed in spectral analysis, but in Dataview power is energy per unit time, expressed as the mean square of the signal amplitude. You can skip this if you want and go straight to the Dataview Power spectrum or Spectrogram facilities. This section starts with some background information on spectral analysis.
