5.8MATLAB and Simulink Interface
While it is possible to work with signals and systems exclusively within the MATLAB environment, it is far more efficient to utilize Simulink and the MATLAB toolboxes to solve problems in specific disciplines. Sharing of data between MATLAB and Simulink is a seamless process, enabling MATLAB’s extensive capabilities in data analysis and visualization to be utilized.
The following example illustrates how to effectively exploit the MATLAB and Simulink interface. It deals with the Fourier Series and its application to frequency response of linear systems.
A periodic signal u(t) is shown in Figure 5.98. Equation 5.99 describes the signal over one period from –T/2 to T/2. It is periodic as a result of u(t + T) =
