hello
I have this signal
clear all;clc;
t=0:0.0001:10;
tt=t(1:100000);%take 100 000 samples
a=30*pi/180; %phase (calculated form deg. to rad.)
b=90*pi/180; %phase (calculated form deg. to rad.)
ia=5*cos(2*pi*10*tt-a)+7*cos(2*pi*50*tt-b);
fs=1/0.0001; %sampling frequency
X=fft(ia); %FFT
df=fs/length(X); %frequency resolution
f=(0:1:length(X)/2)*df; %frequency axis
subplot(2,1,1);
M=abs(X)/length(ia)*2; %amplitude spectrum
plot(f,M(1:length(f)));
subplot(2,1,2);
P=angle(X)*180/pi; %phase spectrum (in deg.)
plot(f,P(1:length(f)));
this technique do not give a good results; I want any technique to get the right "a" an "d" the initial phase angle of 10 HZ and 50 HZ;
I know it is a hard question but please help me

I ran your code it and seems to be working as-is. -30 and -90 deg at 10 and 50Hz

You can't expect them to be zero degrees just because there is no signal defined there. With no content at those frequencies, the angle shown will a result of spectral leakage and numerical noise. Zero degrees is no more valid than any other angle and you should always be looking a the PSD or something else to see which frequencies have a significant response.

This is the correct method, any other method will be a round about way of doing the same thing.
