Waveform Generation: Time Vectors and Sinusoids
Most toolbox functions require you to begin with a vector representing a time base.
Consider generating data with a 1000 Hz sample frequency, for example. An appropriate
time vector is
t = (0:0.001:1)';
where the MATLAB colon operator creates a 1001-element row vector that represents
time running from 0 to 1 s in steps of 1 ms. The transpose operator (') changes the row
vector into a column; the semicolon (;) tells MATLAB to compute, but not display the
result.
Given t, you can create a sample signal y consisting of two sinusoids, one at 50 Hz and
one at 120 Hz with twice the amplitude.
y = sin(2*pi*50*t) + 2*sin(2*pi*120*t);
The new variable y, formed from vector t, is also 1001 elements long. You can add
normally distributed white noise to the signal and plot the first 50 points using
rng default;
yn = y + 0.5*randn(size(t));
plot(t(1:50),yn(1:50))
