Tutorial Diagrammi di Bode lezione #1: introduzione, cosa sono e a cosa servono

Summary

The video script introduces the concept of Bode diagrams, which are graphical representations of a system's transfer function as it varies with frequency. These diagrams are crucial for studying the behavior of systems, particularly in the audio field, where understanding amplification and the quality of amplifiers is essential. Bode diagrams consist of two parts: one for the amplitude (in decibels) and one for the phase, both plotted against the logarithmic frequency scale. The script explains that these diagrams are drawn on semi-logarithmic paper or using pre-printed graph paper, with the y-axis representing the transfer function in decibels. The use of logarithmic scales allows for a clear visualization of system behavior over a wide range of frequencies, making it easier to understand and analyze.

Keywords

💡Bode Diagrams

Bode Diagrams are graphical representations used to illustrate the transfer function of a system as it varies with frequency. They are crucial for analyzing the behavior of systems, particularly in fields like audio engineering, where understanding amplification and the quality of amplifiers across different frequencies is essential. In the script, Bode Diagrams are introduced as the primary tool for studying system behavior in a sinusoidal regime through the module and phase.

💡Transfer Function

The transfer function is a mathematical representation that describes the relationship between an input and an output of a system.

💡Frequency

Frequency refers to the number of cycles of a repeating event per unit time. In the context of the video, it is the variable that changes as the system's behavior is studied using Bode Diagrams. The script emphasizes the importance of studying how a system's transfer function changes with varying frequencies.

💡Module (Magnitude)

In the context of Bode Diagrams, the module (or magnitude) represents the gain or loss of a system's output signal relative to its input signal as a function of frequency. It is measured in decibels (dB) and is plotted on a logarithmic scale in Bode Diagrams, as highlighted in the script.

💡Phase

Phase in the context of Bode Diagrams refers to the shift in time between the input and output signals of a system as a function of frequency. It is measured in degrees and is crucial for understanding the timing relationship and potential distortions in the system's response, as discussed in the script.

💡Logarithmic Scale

A logarithmic scale is a nonlinear scale used in Bode Diagrams for the frequency axis. It allows for a wide range of frequencies to be represented on a single graph, making it easier to visualize the system's behavior over several orders of magnitude.

buongiorno a tutti e benvenuti a questa

prima lezione i tutorial su i diagrammi

di bod e ho deciso di introdurre i

diagrammi di mode come forma di tutorial

elezioni in modo da poter fare passo

passo e gli step appunto necessari per

poter capire a che cosa servono come vi

si devono fare e le conclusioni che poi

possiamo trarre una volta capito bene

come si disegnano

quindi andremo a vedere per prima cosa i

dato che cosa sono a che cosa servono e

come si fanno per portare questo ci

vediamo tra un attimo

[Musica]

bene quindi rispondiamo per prima cosa a

queste tre domande allora che cosa sono

i diagrammi di mode sono delle

rappresentazioni grafiche di che cosa

della funzione di trasferimento di un

sistema al variare della sua frequenza o

pulsazione quindi una di dj omega oppure

gds se lavoriamo con le trasformate di

la plus come più comodo fare

siccome il comportamento di un sistema

il regime sinusoidale è

descritto semplicemente dai valori del

modulo e della fase quindi mi basta

studiare il modulo e la fase per vedere

come si comporta un sistema in regime

sinusoidale va da sé che gli ha grammi

di mode si concentrano su queste due

grandezze quindi ci sarà diagramma di

bot e del modulo sempre in funzione

della pulsazione e un diagramma timo di

gode della fase sempre in funzione della

pulsazione quindi cosa sono delle

rappresentazioni grafiche quindi dei

diagrammi

con determinate regole e poi vedremo

come su che cosa si tracciano questi

grafici a che cosa servono servono

appunto per poter studiare il

comportamento di un sistema quindi al

variare della frequenza di questo

sistema io studio la funzione di

trasferimento quindi

per quanto riguarda ad esempio il campo

audio è molto importante perché io vado

a studiare l'amplificazione e quindi la

bontà di quello che è un amplificatore

al variare della frequenza

quindi serve un appunto per fare per

poter studiare la funzione di

trasferimento al variare della frequenza

come si fanno i diagrammi vengono

tracciati su quella che si chiama scala

semi logaritmica quindi una scala che

per quanto riguarda le hascisc e quindi

l'asse delle hicks è una scala di tipo

logaritmico e andremo a vedere quindi

genere si facevano con carta

millimetrata adesso ci sono già

diciamo dell dei grafici

già pronti da poter sui quali poter

disegnare che sono molto comodi per

quanto riguarda invece la l'asse delle

ordinate la ypsilon è una scala lineare

una scala lineare che però è in decibel

quindi si dovrà fare 20 logaritmo in

base 10 della funzione di trasferimento

ora

così a parole vi scrivo un attimino

quello che vi ho detto e vi faccio

vedere poi quello che è il diagramma sul

quale si va ci si va al poi a lavorare

beh allora qua fatto un piccolo

riassunto di risposta alle domande

iniziali e quali faccio vedere un

esempio di dei due diagrammi quindi

abbiamo quello del modulo è quello della

fase vedete che sulla sulle ascisse

abbiamo una scala logaritmica tenete

conto che

si può espandere sia a destra che a

sinistra

come potete notare ovviamente 10 alla 0

sull 1 poi 10 alla 11010 alla 2 cento

poi avevano mille diecimila e così via e

di qua stessa cosa dieci alla meno uno o

dieci alla meno 210 almeno tre lo zero

praticamente è come se fosse a melo

infinito perché in realtà su una scala

logaritmica non ci avvicineremo lo

toccheremo mai lo zero

quello che è lo spazio che intercorre

tra una potenza diciamo del 10 e l'altra

si chiama decade quindi una decade tra

qua e qua ra qua e qua ma anche una

decade è tra un punto qui e lo stesso

punto la decade dopo quindi è sempre uno

spazio in quella che è la scala

logaritmica

e abbiamo la pulsazione sia in quello

del modulo che in quello della fase per

quanto riguarda invece le ordinate nel

modulo avremo i db quindi anche qua si

può si è può espandere sia verso l'alto

quindi comunque 80 db cento di vi sia

anche in negativo quindi meno 20db meno

40 meno 60 meno 80 io del suo che ho

fatto solo un pezzettino quindi

ovviamente poi

andremo a prendere l'intervallo che ci

interessa per quanto riguarda la fase

abbiamo i gradi anche qua 0 45 90135

180 ma anche in negativo quindi meno 45

meno 90 alleno 135 meno 180 perché poi

ci servono e come si vanno a disegnare

nello specifico prima dobbiamo un

attimino introdurre e farne uno per

volta quindi step by step anche questo è

un altro focus come potete notare la

scala logaritmica quindi quelle della xi

quelle delle ordinate vedete che

l'ideale quindi tra 020 avete

semplicemente

una distanza

uguale il quella logaritmica avete che

praticamente

la prima spaziatura è il in questo caso

15 a 0 che uno qui troverete il 2 il 3 4

5 6 7 8 9 e poi il la decade successiva

quindi qua che ad esempio abbiamo 10 20

30 40 50 e così via quindi le distanze

vengono poste in questi termini

bene direi che per questa prima lezione

è tutto abbiamo ben chiaro che cosa sono

a cosa servono come si fanno diciamo a

livello semplicemente di

su che tipo di carta si fanno poi come

vengono fatti e come si vanno a

disegnare man mano lo vedremo appunto

nelle nelle altre elezioni

la cosa importante da sapere è che si

fanno perché graficamente e sfruttando

quelle che sono le proprietà dei

logaritmi e andremo a vedere che questo

è tutto estremamente più semplice sia da

disegnare sia da capire sia per poterci

ragionare quando poi si fanno a fare gli

studi sulla stabilità dei sistemi bene

ci vediamo alla prossima lezione fatemi

sapere se tutto chiaro e se l'argomento

vi interessa
