Dear Olivier

OK, good. I agree that the definitions of amplitude and phase should be
generic. These transformations could apply to many quantities. It sounds
neutral to me to refer to fitting a sinusoidal function in the definition,
and I suggested harmonic_period because that seemed generic to me, but
there may well be better phrases.

Best wishes
