LAB # 03

Generation and Plotting of Different

Baseband Analog and Discrete Signals in
MATLAB
Two features make MATLAB particularly useful. MATLAB knows how to work
with vectors, and it knows how to produce all sorts of graphs. Let us start with vectors. Then
we will move on to plotting graphs. MATLAB recognizes this as a command to
allocate memory for and to assign the set of numbers listed to a. For example, giving
MATLAB the command a = [1 2 3 4 5] causes MATLAB to respond with

a=12345

Example: To Plot Sine Wave of 2 Hz

>> t = [0:.01:1];
>> s = sin(2*pi*2*t);
>> plot(t,s)

and you get

Task :
1. Continuous Signal:
Plot the first ten cycles of sinusoid (sin) with time period of 10 seconds. The horizontal axis
corresponds to time period of the sinusoid while vertical axis depicts the values of sinusoid.
Note: Use plot command to show the graph

 Note: create a vector from -3 to 3 with a step of 0.25.

6. Plot the inverse hyperbolic tangent function over the interval −1<x<1.
