I am new one to Mathematica. So excuse me if my question is not absolutely accurate. I am trying to find all isolated frequencies in Fourier domain. And then to make inverse Fourier. And finally to find the Stokes parameters. I tried numerous methods to obtain the results from the second picture (see below), but I have not succeeded. Also I think that the FourierParameters -> {a, b} must also be part of the focus in order to have an accurate frequency propagation in the Fourier domain. The second picture was made with programs write in Fortran, which are very complicated.

The first picture is the spectrum in Time domain:

Spectrum in Time Domain

The second picture are what I want to find first, e.g. frequencies amplitudes in Fourier domain:

Frequencies amplitudes in Fourier domain

My code is:

You can get a logarithmic plot in dB of the squared magnitude of the fourier transform by:

Periodogram[data[[All, 2]]]

enter image description here

The frequency axis ends with 1/2, what is the highest frequency compatible with the sample rate, that is 2 points per periode. In your case you have 2 points per time unit.

We have a peak at approx. 0.052. To get the real frequency we have to take the inverse and divide by 2:

1/(0.052 2)
9.615

Therefore, we have a frequency of approx. 9.6 Hz

The phase and amplitude you get best from using "Fourier", as Ulrich Neumann showed, and pick the 2 components pertaining to the above frequency. Phase and amplitude are obtained from the coefficients.

    $\begingroup$ Looking at the time plot I would expect roughly ~11 periods in the time range 500<t<550, dominant frequency follows to ~.22/s I think. $\endgroup$ Jun 19, 2022 at 11:22
  • $\begingroup$ Thanks, Daniel Huber and Ulrich Neuman. But do you know how I can plot the amplitudes in frequency domain, and to look like in the second picture of my post? $\endgroup$ Jun 19, 2022 at 15:18

Perhaps I misunderstand your question...

If you are looking for the list of frequencies try

t = data[[All, 1]];  (* [seconds] *)
T = t[[-1]] - t[[1]]
index = Range[0, Length[data] - 1];
f = 1/T index;  (* frequency [1/s]*)
ft=Fourier[data[[All, 2]],FourierParameters -> { -1, -1}]

ListLinePlot[{f, Abs[ft]} // Transpose,PlotRange -> All,AxesLabel->{"frequency","Abs[Fourier[...]]"} ]

enter image description here

  • $\begingroup$ Thanks, Ulrich Neumann. I am not sure, but I think that there should be one central amplitude, which consist all the frequencies and at least one more frequency which is smaller than the central one. After FFT is performed on a curve to extract the characteristic frequencies. The amplitude curve should be normalized, and the frequencies should be shifted to obtain a centered x-scale. $\endgroup$ Jun 18, 2022 at 17:20
