Lenses

A lens is a custom view of Connexions content. You can think of it as a fancy kind of list that will let you see Connexions through the eyes of organizations and people you trust.

What is in a lens?

Lens makers point to Connexions materials (modules and collections), creating a guide that includes their own comments and descriptive tags about the content.

Who can create a lens?

Any individual Connexions member, a community, or a respected organization.

Summary: Frequency modulation synthesis (FM synthesis) creates a rich spectrum using only two sinusoidal oscillators. Implementing the basic FM synthesis equation in LabVIEW requires a special technique to make one oscillator vary the phase function of the other oscillator. Learn how to implement the basic FM equation, and also hear an audio demonstration of the equation in action.

• Apply LabVIEW to Audio Signal Processing
• Get started with LabVIEW
• Obtain a fully-functional evaluation edition of LabVIEW

Overview

Frequency modulation synthesis (FM synthesis) creates a rich spectrum using only two sinusoidal oscillators; refer to FM Mathematics for a complete treatment of the mathematics of FM synthesis. Implementing the basic FM synthesis equation in LabVIEW requires a special technique to make one sinusoidal oscillator vary the phase function of the other sinusoidal oscillator. The following screencast video walks you through the implementation process of the basic FM equation and includes an audio demonstration of the equation in action.

Refer to TripleDisplay to install the front-panel indicator used to view the signal spectrum.
