Labview should be able to do the integration for you. It's pretty good software.- JimTaylor

Greg is correct. You can't use the mathematical method shown for anything but a pure, single frequency sine wave. There is no simple calculation for a real world signal. I ment FFT analyser. I should have said so to prevent confusion. Thanks. Jim- JimTaylor

A couple of thoughts. 1. Your instrument should be able to do the integration to velocity and maybe displacement. Beware of double integration to displacement - it adds a lot of noise. 2. To convert a single frequency mathematically use: V=6.28fD and A=6.28fV where D=displacement in thousants...- JimTaylor
