= Harmonic spectrum
{wiki=Harmonic_spectrum}
The term "harmonic spectrum" typically refers to the representation of a signal or waveform in terms of its harmonic frequencies. In the context of music, sound, and signal processing, the harmonic spectrum is crucial for understanding the characteristics of sounds, particularly musical notes and complex waveforms. Here are some key points about harmonic spectra: 1. **Fundamental Frequency and Harmonics**: Every periodic waveform can be decomposed into a fundamental frequency and its harmonics.
