TODO Combine Filters

Additive

• Explain how phase and magnitude combine

Multiplicative

TODO Filters representing noise

Let's consider a noise $n$ that is shaped from a white-noise $\tilde{n}$ with unitary PSD ($\Phi_\tilde{n}(\omega) = 1$) using a transfer function $G(s)$. The PSD of $n$ is then: \[ \Phi_n(\omega) = |G(j\omega)|^2 \Phi_{\tilde{n}}(\omega) = |G(j\omega)|^2 \]

The PSD $\Phi_n(\omega)$ is expressed in $\text{unit}^2/\text{Hz}$.

And the root mean square (RMS) of $n(t)$ is: \[ \sigma_n = \sqrt{\int_{0}^{\infty} \Phi_n(\omega) d\omega} \]

First Order Low Pass Filter

\[ G(s) = \frac{g_0}{1 + \frac{s}{\omega_c}} \]

  g0 = 1; % Noise Density in unit/sqrt(Hz)
  wc = 1; % Cut-Off frequency [rad/s]

  G = g0/(1 + s/wc);

  % Frequency vector [Hz]
  freqs = logspace(-3, 3, 1000);

  % PSD of n in [unit^2/Hz]
  Phi_n = abs(squeeze(freqresp(G, freqs, 'Hz'))).^2;

  % RMS value of n in [unit, rms]
  sigma_n = sqrt(trapz(freqs, Phi_n))

\[ \sigma = \frac{1}{2} g_0 \sqrt{\omega_c} \] with:

• $g_0$ the Noise Density of $n$ in $\text{unit}/\sqrt{Hz}$
• $\omega_c$ the bandwidth over which the noise is located, in rad/s
• $\sigma$ the rms noise

If the cut-off frequency is to be expressed in Hz: \[ \sigma = \frac{1}{2} g_0 \sqrt{2\pi f_c} = \sqrt{\frac{\pi}{2}} g_0 \sqrt{f_c} \]

Thus, if a sensor is said to have a RMS noise of $\sigma = 10 nm\ rms$ over a bandwidth of $\omega_c = 100 rad/s$, we can estimated the noise density of the sensor to be (supposing a first order low pass filter noise shape): \[ g_0 = \frac{2 \sigma}{\sqrt{\omega_c}} \quad \left[ m/\sqrt{Hz} \right] \]
