    Summary

    Signal Analyzer Workflow

    Import Signals

    1. Import signals from files to the Workspace using the readmatrix function.
    2. Set the time information for each signal with Time Values.
    3. Drag signals from the Workspace Browser to the axes to display them.
    4. Display different signals using the checkboxes in the Filter Signals panel.
    Visualize Signals

    1. Use the Display tab to visualize your signal in the time domain, frequency domain, or time-frequency domain.
    2. To customize the visualization, use the appropriate tab. For example, you can customize the power spectrum in
    the Spectrum tab.
    Preprocess and Filter Signals

    1. To modify signals, click Preprocess in the Analyze tab to enter preprocessing mode.
    2. Duplicate signals before modifying them so that you can compare your signals before and after applying
    techniques.
    3. Select preprocessing techniques from the Functions dropdown.
    4. The Function Parameters panel will open. Set the appropriate specifications and click Apply.
    5. Click Accept All to leave preprocessing mode.

    Generate Signals

    fs = 100;
    The sample rate is the number of samples that are generated
    per second.

    t = 0:1/fs:1;
    Specify the start and end times of your signal. This time vector
    extends from 0 seconds to 1 second. The spacing between
    1
    each point is .
    fs

    sig = sin(2*pi*f*t);
    Calculate a sine wave at each point in t . Change the value of
    f to change the signal's frequency.

    noise = 0.1*randn(size(sig));
    To make the generated signal more realistic, you can add noise
    sigNoisy = sig+sigNoisy;
    by adding a vector of random numbers.
