Where:
b=1 if you wish the sign of the expression ωt ±δ to be the same for the normalized
expansion as it was in the UN normalized expansion (i.e., if the un normalized
expansion used sin(ωt ±δ) and the normalized expansion used sin (ωt ±δ
Normalized
),
then b=1). Otherwise, b=(-1). For example, in Dran-View the expansion is changed
from cos(ωt -δ) to cos (ωt +δ
Normalized
), here b=(-1).
δ
n
is the nth harmonic phase angle. δ
n
on the right side of the equation is the phase
angle generated from the Un-Normalized Transform. The left side is the phase
angle transformed to its normalized perspective. δ
n
is expressed as a positive
number modulo 360.
φ is the Un-Normalized fundamental phase angle of the selected channel. If you
selected “Normalize To the Fnd” φ is the un normalized phase angle of the
currently displayed channel. If you select “Normalize to the Fnd of:” then φ is the
unnormalized phase angle of the selected voltage channel.
n is the harmonic number
The expression used to normalize a sine expansion is what one would intuitively
expect to see. We wish to “subtract out” the fundamental phase angle, therefore it is
logical to subtract nφ degrees from each harmonic phase offset. The harmonic
number “n” is required because one degree of shift along the fundamental is equal
to n degrees of shift along the nth harmonic. Note that the normalization equation
for cosine expansions is just the negation of the expression for sine expansions.
This unfortunate bit of confusion is caused by the fact that in the process of
normalizing the cosine expansion, the form of the expansion is changed from cos
(ωt -δ) to cos (ωt +δ). The change of the minus sign to a plus sign requires the
negation of the normalization result. Note that if we are normalizing the channel
from which we get φ the phase of the normalized fundamental will always be zero.
