Calculate Cycles Per Degree



Formula

The formula to calculate the Cycles Per Degree (CPD) is:

\[ CPD = \frac{CPS}{DPS} \]

What is Cycles Per Degree?

Cycles per degree is a measure used in various fields such as signal processing, engineering, and physics to describe the number of cycles of a waveform that occur within one degree of rotation or angular measurement. It is a way to quantify the frequency of oscillations relative to angular displacement, providing insights into the behavior and characteristics of rotating systems or waveforms.

Example Calculation

Consider an example where:

Using the formula to calculate the Cycles Per Degree:

\[ CPD = \frac{100}{20} = 5 \]

This means that the cycles per degree for this example is 5.
