In discussing periods of digital audio signals, we quickly run into the
|
||||
difficulty of describing signals whose ``period" isn't an integer, so that the
|
||||
equation above doesn't make sense. For now we'll effectively
|
||||
ignore this difficulty by supposing that the signal <IMG
|
||||
WIDTH="31" HEIGHT="32" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
|
||||
SRC="img80.png"
|

ALT="$x[n]$"> may somehow be

Moreover, if we make certain technical assumptions (in effect that signals
|
||||
only contain frequencies up to a finite bound), we can represent any periodic
|
||||
signal as such a sum. This is the discrete-time variant of Fourier analysis
|
||||
which will reappear in Chapter <A HREF="node163.html#chapter-fourier">9</A>.

The angular frequencies of the sinusoids above are all integer

multiples of <IMG

|

is sometimes called the <I>harmonic series</I>. The first six of these are
|

all quite close to multiples of 100; in other words, the first six harmonics
|
||||
of a pitch in the Western scale land close to (but not always exactly on) other
|
||||
pitches of the same scale; the third and sixth miss only by 2 cents and the
|

fifth misses by 14.

<P>
|

<A NAME="r-intervals"></A>Put another way, the frequency ratio 3:2 (a perfect fifth in Western

terminology) is almost exactly
|

seven half-steps, 4:3 (a perfect fourth) is just as near to five half-steps,
|
||||
and the ratios 5:4 and 6:5 (perfect major and minor thirds) are fairly close to
|

intervals of four and three half-steps, respectively.

<P>

A Fourier series (with only three terms) is shown in Figure <A HREF="#fig01.08">1.8</A>.
|
||||
The first three graphs are of sinusoids, whose frequencies are in a 1:2:3
|
||||
ratio. The common period is marked on the horizontal axis. Each sinusoid
|
||||
has a different amplitude and initial phase. The sum of the three, at
|
||||
bottom, is not a sinusoid, but it still maintains the periodicity shared
|
||||
by the three component sinusoids.

Leaving questions of phase aside, we can use a bank of sinusoidal oscillators
|
||||
to synthesize periodic tones, or even to morph smoothly through a succession
|
||||
of periodic tones, by specifying the fundamental frequency and the (possibly
|
||||
time-varying) amplitudes of the partials. Figure <A HREF="#fig01.09">1.9</A> shows a
|
||||
block diagram for doing this.
