Spectogram similar to "Baudline" within LabView

Solved!
Go to solution

Hey folks,

 

I was wondering if LabView has a similar diagram to the spectogram diagram of the baudline Software (see attachment).

I tried it with the waterfall diagram but thats not really working for me. Any suggestions?

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi mee,

 

welcome to the forum!

 

Yes, LabVIEW has what you need:

- For the spectogram you can use an intensity graph. This one also supports cursors, which can be used to pick the "time of interest" as shown in your image.

- To present the single FFT in the lower part of your picture you use a waveform graph…

Best regards,

That is not a static intensity graph it is a "waterfall" display taht scrolls vertically.

 

Can an intensity graph scroll vertically like the "waterfall" in Baudline and SDR applications?

 

SDR# waterfall 

 

Baudline waterfall

Hey,

 

thanks for the quick responses. Yes what I'm looking for should display the "history" like in a waterfall graph (see picture from RTSLVU).

Isn't that possible with the intensity graph? Sorry I'm quite new to Labview and it's on my work computer so I couldn't validate the answer yet (today was home office ;-)).

Hi RTSVLU and me,

 

an intensity graph just shows the content of the 2D array data wired to it (THINK DATAFLOW!): when you want to scroll vertically all you need to do is add columns instead of rows. Or use TransposeArray…
