How do you explain a periodogram?

A periodogram is used to identify the dominant periods (or frequencies) of a time series. This can be a helpful tool for identifying the dominant cyclical behavior in a series, particularly when the cycles are not related to the commonly encountered monthly or quarterly seasonality.

How do you find the periodogram in MATLAB?

pxx = periodogram( x ) returns the periodogram power spectral density (PSD) estimate, pxx , of the input signal, x , found using a rectangular window. When x is a vector, it is treated as a single channel.

How do you find the power spectrum of a signal in MATLAB?

p = pspectrum( x , fs ) returns the power spectrum of a vector or matrix signal sampled at a rate fs . p = pspectrum( x , t ) returns the power spectrum of a vector or matrix signal sampled at the time instants specified in t .

How does Pwelch work in MATLAB?

pxx = pwelch( x , window ) uses the input vector or integer, window , to divide the signal into segments. If window is a vector, pwelch divides the signal into segments equal in length to the length of window . The modified periodograms are computed using the signal segments multiplied by the vector, window .
