Hi,

For Linear FM, I have use
i(n)=Aexp(-jpi(cot(angle))*(n2/256))=Aexp(-j*theta).
But I am not sure for sinsoidal chirp signal.I think it cant be use
as i(n)= A cos(theta). Because instantaneous frequency, w(n)=d/dn(theta
and I cant get sinusoidal for instantaneous frequency signal afte
differentiated theta.
Any suggestion for the sinusoidal chirp signal equation?? thanks.

Your notation leaves much to be desired. So, clarify please and perhaps
someone can help you.

You use, "angle", "theta", "i(n)", "n2" all without definition. So,
attempting to address your concern is risky. But, here goes:

Start with:

wi = instantaneous radian frequency which is a derivative of an angle as a
function of time:

fc(t)=cos(theta(t))

wi=d(theta)/dt

Angle modulation, in particular if:

theta(t) = wc*t + theta0 + K1*f(t)

where K1 is a system parameter or constant.
f(t) is the modulating signal.

This is a phase modulation system.

If we vary the instantaneous frequency linearly with the modulating signal:

wi = wc + K2*f(t)
then

theta(t) = wc*t + theta0 + K2*int[f(t)dt]
where "int" is the integral of:

This is a frequency modulation system.
Both systems are types of angle modulation systems and is often just called
frequency modulation.

So, it appears for a linear chirp you need f(t) to be a ramp, the integral
to be a scaled ramp squared which will add to theta.
