Figure 1. Time-frequency of plasma electrical signal.


In this laboratory session we have been working on graphical representation of sinusoids are building an electrical signal of the first sample. This type of information could not have been presented by Origin Pro, so we decided to use Mathcad for drawing this graph. The output is presented in the figure 1, the colors are showing the intensity of the particular frequency. From the graph we can observe definitely the most intense colours are oscillating in the low frequency region - below 100Hz. It is the base frequency. Second most intensive frequency we can see is 4000 Hz. It is the high frequency component of the signal. We can also notice that intensity of the signal is decreasing approximately in the middle of the graph and is much higher at the beginning and in the end.
