log2lin
Logarithmic to linear conversion where x -> ref * 10 ^ (x / fac)
Usage:
log2lin(x, ref, fac)
Parameters:
- ref
- Default is
1
.
- fac
- Default is
20
.
Warning: Display title "lin2log, log2lin" overrides earlier display title "log2lin". Convert the elements of x to logarithmic values (e.g. dB) and vice versa.
- Usage
lin2log(x {, ref {, fac}})
log2lin(x {, ref {, fac}})
- x
- a scalar, vector or matrix
- ref
- the reference value; must be a positive number (default=1)
- fac
- the factor; must be a positive number (default=20)
- Result
- The result r has the same type as x and contains the converted elements of x
- lin2log: ri,j = fac * log10(xi,j / ref)
- log2lin: ri,j = ref * 10 ^ (xi,j / fac)
Example:
#a := eval 20*log(2) // convert factor 2 to 6dB #b := eval 20*log(2,10) // same as above #c := eval 20*log(vv(2,10,20,50,100)) // $#c = { 6.02, 20, 26.02, 33.98, 40 }
