Russ' Mathcad Examples (developed in version 2001i)

Filename Description
dft.mcd Example of calculating the discrete (digital) Fourier transform on one cycle of a waveform by formula.

Excel version using the Analysis Toolpak. VB code implementing the DFT.
sliding_dft.mcd Applying the DFT in a sliding window along a waveform greater than one cycle in length.
actual_dft.mcd Sliding-window DFT applied to an actual waveform captured by a microprocessor protective relay during energization of a 1300 MVA, 500 kV transformer bank. Waveform is B-phase current measured on the 500 kV side. Data read from a COMTRADE file.
rms.mcd Example of calculating the root-mean-square (RMS) value of one cycle of a waveform by formula.
sliding_rms.mcd Applying RMS calculation in a sliding window along a waveform greater than one cycle.
actual_rms.mcd Sliding RMS calculation applied to the same waveform used in the actual_dft.mcd example.
discrete_convolution.mcd Example of discrete convolution of two number sequences. Animation: discrete_convolution animation
