= Absolute phase
{wiki=Absolute_phase}
Absolute phase refers to the specific phase relationship of a periodic wave or signal at a given point in time with respect to a fixed reference point, typically measured in degrees or radians. In various fields such as physics, engineering, and acoustics, understanding the absolute phase of a waveform is important because it can influence the interference, superposition, and perception of the wave. In audio contexts, for example, absolute phase can affect how sounds are perceived when multiple audio signals are combined.
