What is meant by signal energy?
A signal is said to be an energy signal if and only if its total energy E is finite, i.e., 0 < 𝐸 < ∞. For an energy signal, the average power P = 0. The nonperiodic signals are the examples of energy signals.
What is audio energy?
The energy (Wikipedia; FMP, p. 66) of a signal corresponds to the total magntiude of the signal. For audio signals, that roughly corresponds to how loud the signal is.
Why is audio signal processing important?
Audio signal processing is at the heart of recording, enhancing, storing and transmitting audio content. Audio signal processing is used to convert between analog and digital formats, to cut or boost selected frequency ranges, to remove unwanted noise, to add effects and to obtain many other desired results.
What does signal mean in terms of audio?
An audio signal is a representation of sound, typically using either a changing level of electrical voltage for analog signals, or a series of binary numbers for digital signals.
