Bode plot: Difference between revisions

split the caption into two halves...first is simple identification, then after a space give the details.
actually I don't think should go into detail of explaining the phase behavior in this caption, so try to simplify wording dramatically. That would be better explained outside of a caption with limited horizontal space.

In [[electrical engineering]] and [[control theory]], a '''Bode plot''' {{IPAc-en|ˈ|b|oʊ|d|i|}} is a [[plot (graphics)|graph]] of the [[frequency response]] of a system. It is usually a combination of a '''Bode magnitude plot,''' expressing the magnitude (usually in [[decibel]]s) of the frequency response, and a '''Bode phase plot,''' expressing the [[phase (waves)|phase shift]].
