Sagedusruumpõhiselt

Sagedusruumpõhiselt is a term used in Estonian to describe an approach or analysis conducted primarily in the frequency domain, rather than directly in the time domain. It emphasizes representing signals, data, or phenomena by their frequency components, typically through transforms such as the Fourier transform, and interpreting results in terms of spectral content, periodicities, and resonances.

In practice, sagedusruumpõhiselt involves converting a signal from time to frequency space to identify dominant frequencies, bandwidth, and noise characteristics. Common tools include the discrete Fourier transform (DFT), fast Fourier transform (FFT), and various spectral estimation methods such as periodograms or Welch's method. The approach is widely used in signal processing, acoustics, vibration analysis, communications, and seismology, where periodic or quasi-periodic behavior is informative.

Advantages of frequency-domain analysis include clear identification of periodic components, easier filtering and noise reduction, and compact representation of some signals. Limitations include loss of time localization, trade-offs between frequency resolution and leakage, and potential misinterpretation when non-stationary signals are present.

Sagedusruumpõhiselt is often contrasted with time-domain analysis, which focuses on signal amplitude as a function of time and is better for transient events and temporal ordering. In practice, analysts may combine both perspectives, using frequency-domain methods to complement time-domain insight.
