Phalow_freqhigh

Help freqsimulation

% method 'phalow_freqhigh' creates a frequency modulated signal
%   signal is build up of 3 components; s1, s2 and noise.
%     s1: represents the base signal that will be modulated
%     s2: signal that will be used for the frequency modulation
% and the output consists of the following channel
%     1st channel: mixed signal = s1.ampl * cos(ins_pha) + noise
%     2nd channel: s1
%     3rd channel: s2
%     4th channel: noise
%     5th channel: inst_pha_base   instantaneous phase of the high (=base) frequency signal s1
%     6th channel: inst_pha_mod    low frequency phase modulation, this is equal to s2
%     7th channel: inst_pha        instantaneous phase, i.e. inst_pha_base + inst_pha_mod

In figure 7 you can see that most frequencies are modulated at 2 Hz, which was indeed the frequency of the modulation (s2 in data). Harmonics are seen at 4 and 6 Hz. The base frequency (20 Hz, s1 in data) is the only frequency that shows the strongest correlation with the modulation frequency (s2.freq = 2Hz) * 2 = 4Hz.
