Average function to turn frequency into time domain

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello, I have reached out to support about this and am still waiting for a response, but just in case someone here can help me: I have run a frequency domain study on a dielectric with two excitation voltages of two different frequencies to calculate the capacitance of the dielectric, Support then taught me how to use this equation to convert my voltage and current signals from frequency to time domain 'by mapping their phase information': aveop1(with(1,p))cos(2pif1t)+aveop1(with(2,p))cos(2pif2* t) with p as acoustic point sources in their example. I have managed to plot my voltage and current signals by using this equation, however I don't quite get how this equation means? I know that aveop is the average, but what does it have to do with the phase? Does someone maybe have an idea? I tried comparing the signals to my signals simulated using IFT and the current signals are not identical in terms of their phase, so I'm not quite sure which one is correct. It would definitely help my understanding if someone would kindly explain what the equation (in bold) above does. Jun
