Detailed Documentation

Given a voltage signal sequence, the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) can be employed to compute each harmonic component and their Root Mean Square (RMS) values. FFT is a widely-used signal processing technique that converts a time-domain signal into the frequency domain, enabling analysis and understanding of the voltage signal's spectral characteristics. By calculating the harmonic components and their RMS values, we gain comprehensive insights into the spectral distribution and power allocation of the voltage signal, providing valuable information for circuit design and analysis. Implementation typically involves applying FFT to the sampled voltage data, extracting magnitude and phase information for each frequency bin, and computing RMS values using the formula RMS = magnitude / √2 for sinusoidal components. Key steps include proper signal windowing to minimize spectral leakage and selecting an appropriate sampling rate to avoid aliasing.
