Abstract:

Measurement of the amplitude and phase spectra of shock pulses is investigated. Sampling theory is used to show that these spectra may be uniquely defined by samples which can be determined from measurements made on a periodic extension of the shock pulse. It is shown that heterodyne analyzers can be used to measure the amplitude spectrum samples. An original phase angle measurement system is described. The described system is used to measure the spectra of shock pulses and is shown to provide adequate results. Author
