Exponential Chirp

Generates a real sine signal, which varies exponentially in frequency over time

Description

The Exponential Chirp component generates a sine wave signal at the output, $y$. Its equation is

where $f$ is the instantaneous frequency,

 $f={f}_{0}\cdot {k}^{\left(t-{T}_{0}\right)}$

and $k$  is the exponential rate of change of frequency with respect to time,

The instantaneous frequency of the generated sine wave varies exponentially from ${f}_{0}$ at time ${T}_{0}$ to ${f}_{1}$ at time ${T}_{0}+{T}_{r}$

For example, if ${f}_{0}=1$, ${f}_{1}=1000$, and ${T}_{r}=3$, then the frequency will be 1Hz at time ${T}_{0}$, 10Hz at time ${T}_{0}+1$, 100Hz at time ${T}_{0}+2$, and 1000Hz at time ${T}_{0}+3$.
