How to do a phase shift of a signal

Hello,

I want to do a phase shift of a signal and I can't get the right method to do it. What I am doing is that first I do the FFT of the signal and then I get Phase and Magnitude. In the phase I add or subtract the value to be shifted and then I use the new phase and the old magnitude and do IFFT to get back the signal but what I get is not a shifted signal and also the signal value of the Y axis alos changed which should not be change.

Can any one guide me how to achieve successfully the phase shift without changing the value in y axis.

Thanks

I'm not sure if I understand the question. Is FFT useful for a phase-shift? What about shifting the phase directly?

x = sin(linspace(0, 10*pi, 10000));
x_shift = zeros(1, numel(x));
x_shift(1:9000) = x(1001:10000);

But perhaps I've overlooked the complexity of the question.

s/he is looking for fractional phase shifts for which you cannot "shift the phase directly".

For time-shifts by a non-integer number of samples, you need to use a property of the DTFT : a shift in the time-domain amounts to a modulation in the frequency domain (and vice-versa).

Here is a correct implementation (see answer #1 by Prabhan Purwar):

I wrote some code to do the same thing it does work but not sure is it right please go through this

    % code
clc
clear all
close all
f1=20;
t1=1;
fc=100*f1;
samples=1000;
t=(0:samples-1)/fc;
y=sin(2*pi*f1*t);
t0=1000/fc;
f=linspace(-fc/2,fc/2,samples);
y_ff=fftshift(fft(y));
y_ff2=exp(-j*2*pi*f*t0).*y_ff;
y2=ifft(ifftshift(y_ff2));
plot(t,abs(y2))
hold on
plot(t,y,'r')
grid on

Hello, This may help?

t = 0:0.01:2*pi;
x = sin(t);

Possible way 1:

k = 324; % t is of size 629 so if k=324 it corresponds to t(k)=pi approx
delta = zeros(1,length(x)); delta(k)=1;
x_ph = cconv(delta,x,length(x));
figure;
subplot(2,1,1); plot(t,x);
subplot(2,1,2); plot(t,x_ph);

Possible way 2:

X = fft(x);

w = (2*pi/length(x)) * (0:length(x)-1);

k = 324;
X_ph = X.*exp(-1i*w*k);
x_ph = ifft(X_ph);

figure;
subplot(2,1,1); plot(t,x);
subplot(2,1,2); plot(t,x_ph);

Warning: Imaginary parts of complex X and/or Y arguments ignored.

Possible way 3 (complex representation) :

x_complex = exp(1i*t);
x_complex_ph = x_complex*exp(-1i*pi);
x_ph = imag(x_complex_ph); %imag cause imag(e^it)=sin(t)

figure;
subplot(2,1,1); plot(t,x);
subplot(2,1,2); plot(t,x_ph);

[Asaf Haddad]

There is no point in the fft and ifft here, since are simply multiplying with a constant phase. It doesn't matter if you multiply the signal or it transform.

[Yvonne Haesevoets]

for fractional phase shifts, there is no other way than to do it by application of one of the DTFT's properties : time shift => modulation in frequency

Answer 6

[Akanksha Pathak]

For a signal, π f t) with frequency f , if we want to provide phase shift of ϕ radian,

Equation 1: ϕ=2πf, where is delay in time

Equation 2: =sin(2 πft+ ϕ)

In case, we want to provide phase shift of θ degree, then

Equation 3: θ=360 f

Compute the required delay using equation 3, compute corresponding delay in radian using equation 1, and use it to generate phase shift in using equation 2.

Hope this answers

I have the same question.

Only i use FT function of Matlab. If I want to have the phase shift of the signal, can I use the FFTshift function of matlab
