The energy of a signal can be calculated by squaring each data point in the signal and then summing all of the squared values. This is also known as the squared integral of the signal.
Energy is typically measured in joules (J) or in electron volts (eV) in the field of physics and engineering. In signal processing, energy is often measured in terms of power, which has units of watts (W).
Power is the rate at which energy is transferred or consumed. It is the energy per unit time. In other words, power measures how quickly energy is being used or produced.
Yes, the energy and power of any signal can be calculated as long as the signal is continuous and has a finite duration. This includes both analog and digital signals.
The amplitude, frequency, and duration of a signal all affect its energy and power. Signals with higher amplitudes, higher frequencies, and longer durations will have higher energy and power values.
