I need to check the quality of the EEG signal, to see if there is any noise in the signal (e.g. the 50 Hz line noise).
For what I have read so far, a good way to check would be to conduct Single-sided amplitude spectrum analyses both for all electrodes and for single electrodes (e.g. Cz).
I have run the following code:
%Open the file
FileName = 'Data.dat';
fid = fopen(FileName);
if fid < 0, error('Cannot open file'); end
signal = fread(fid, Inf, 'float32');
fclose(fid);
%Set the parameters of the recording
Fs = 1000; % Sampling frequency
T = 1/Fs; % Sample time
L = length(signal); % Length of signal
%Amplitude spectrum analysis
NFFT = 2^(nextpow2(L)-1);
x=zeros(NFFT,1);
x(1:NFFT,1) = signal(1:NFFT,1);
YY = fft(x,NFFT)/L;
ff = Fs/2*linspace(0,1,NFFT/2+1);
%is taking the positive half of the spectrum (NFFT/2 +1 gives this, including 0 and nyquist, hence the +1) and mapping it onto your real frequencies from 'normalised frequency'.
% Plot single-sided amplitude spectrum.
figure; plot(ff,2*abs(YY(1:NFFT/2+1))), title('Single-Sided Amplitude Spectrum of tp'), xlabel('Frequency (Hz)'), ylabel('|Y(f)|');
I am not sure how to plot only one channel (e.g. Cz being channel 28).
(I have 64 channels, with 10-20 IS).
Any suggestion would be very much appreciated.

I am trying to generate ultrashort pulses and then seeing the resulting frequency comb using a fourier transform, I have used the gaussian pulse and pulse train functions to try and do this but it is not coming out correctly - I am hoping to be able to change the variables at the top to see the changes quickly
If here is a solution or any good resources that could help me I would appreciate it alot... Thanks

I have a matlab code to Frequency modulation and demodulation a signal. My code is work well for modulation part. My message signal is m and modulated signal is u, code plot the message signal and its integral in one graph for plotting 1.
Then signal modulated with carrier and program plots the modulated signal in time domain for plotting 2.
After that, by the help of some code blocks program find the frequency spectrum of modulated signal and message signal to plot graph of them for plotting 3.
In demodulation part program make some fundamental calculation for FM detection, then to obtain message signal it uses filter.
Last part program plots the graph of recovered signal with message signal to compare them.
I summarized all code because ı do not know whre is the problem.
My problem about plotting 3 when I make zoom graph 3 I see some phase foldings or like it.Graph is not symmetric according to y-axis.
I did not solve this problem, I research about them and I decided to use unwrap(). Although I tried a lot, I could not be successful. How can I get rid of this phase folding with unwrap() function. Thank you.

Your k is not symmetric.
If you work with symmetric k is it working fine?
I just read the example of Mablab tutorial, trying to studying the FFT function.
Can anyone tell me that for the final step, why P1(2:end-1) = 2*P1(2:end-1). In my opinion, it is not necessary to multiply by 2.
Fs = 1000; % Sampling frequency
T = 1/Fs; % Sampling period
L = 1000; % Length of signal
t = (0:L-1)*T; % Time vector
%--------
S = 0.7*sin(2*pi*50*t) + sin(2*pi*120*t);
%---------
X = S + 2*randn(size(t));

Matlab sample
The reason for the multiplication by 2 is that the spectrum returned by fft is symmetric about the DC component. Since they are showing the single-sided amplitude spectrum, the amplitude of each point is going to be doubled to account for the contributions of data on the other side of the spectrum. For example, the single-sided amplitude of pi/4 is the amplitude at pi/4 plus the amplitude at -pi/4.
The first sample is skipped since it is the DC point and therefore shared between the two sides of the spectrum.
So for example, if we look at the fft of their example signal with a 50Hz sinusoid of amplitude 0.7 and a 120Hz sinusoid of amplitude 1.
Fs = 1000; % Sampling frequency
T = 1/Fs; % Sampling period
L = 1000; % Length of signal
t = (0:L-1)*T; % Time vector
S = 0.7*sin(2*pi*50*t) + sin(2*pi*120*t);
% Compute the FFT
Y = fft(S);
% Compute the amplitudes
amplitude = abs(Y / L);
% Figure out the corresponding frequencies
f = Fs/L*[0:(L/2-1),-L/2:-1]
% Plot the result
plot(f, amplitude)
When we plot this, you'll see that it's symmetric and the original input amplitude is only realized by combining the amplitudes from both sides of the spectrum.
A slightly more explicit version of what they have done would be to be the following which sums the two halves of the spectrum
P1(2:end-1) = P1(2:end-1) + P2((L/2+2):end);
But since by definition the spectrum is symmetric, the opt to simply multiply by 2.
I'm using the pwelch method in matlab to compute the power spectra for some wind speed measurements. So, far I have written the following code as an example:
t = 10800; % number of seconds in 3 hours
t = 1:t; % generate time vector
fs = 1; % sampling frequency (seconds)
A = 2; % amplitude
P = 1000; % period (seconds), the time it takes for the signal to repeat itself
f1 = 1/P; % number of cycles per second (i.e. how often the signal repeats itself every second).
y = A*sin(2*pi*f1*t); % signal
fh = figure(1);
set(fh,'color','white','Units', 'Inches', 'Position', [0,0,6,6],...
'PaperUnits', 'Inches', 'PaperSize', [6,6]);
[pxx, f] = pwelch(y,[],[],[],fs);
loglog(f,10*(pxx),'k','linewidth',1.2);
xlabel('log10(cycles per s)');
ylabel('Spectral Density (dB Hz^{-1})');
I cannot include the plot as I do not have enough reputation points
Does this make sense? I'm struggling with the idea of having noise at the right side of the plot. The signal which was decomposed was a sine wave with no noise, where does this noise come from? Does the fact that the values on the yaxis are negative suggest that those frequencies are negligible? Also, what would be the best way to write the units on the y axis if the wind speed is measured in m/s, can this be converted to something more meaningful for environmental scientists?
Your results are fine. dB can be confusing.
A linear plot will get a good view,
Fs = 1000; % Sampling frequency
T = 1/Fs; % Sample time
L = 1000; % Length of signal
t = (0:L-1)*T; % Time vector
y = sin(2 * pi * 50 * t); % 50Hz signal
An fft approach,
NFFT = 2^nextpow2(L); % Next power of 2 from length of y
Y = fft(y,NFFT)/L;
f = Fs/2*linspace(0,1,NFFT/2+1);
subplot(1,2,1);
plot(f,2*abs(Y(1:NFFT/2+1)))
xlabel('Frequency (Hz)')
ylabel('|Y(f)|')
pwelch approach,
subplot(1,2,2);
[pxx, freq] = pwelch(y,[],[],[],Fs);
plot(freq,10*(pxx),'k','linewidth',1.2);
xlabel('Frequency (Hz)');
ylabel('Spectral Density (Hz^{-1})');
As you can see they both have peak at 50Hz.
Using loglog for both,
So "noise" is of 1e-6 and exists in fft as well, and can be ignored.
For your second question, I don't think the axis will change it will be frequency again. For Fs you should use the sampling frequency of wind speed, like if you have 10 samples of speed in one second your Fs is 10. Higher frequencies in your graph means more changes in wind speed and lower frequencies represent less changes for the speed.
I have an audio file , which represent the sound of a motor running at 2500rpm my aim is to get the period of this signal, so I can automaticlly tell what is the motor speed is. To do that I take a part of the signal and run get it autocorrelation , hopping that this willl tell the period of the singal! but I just don't get it :
here is a part of my code :
clear;
clc;
[x0,Fs] = audioread('_2500.wav');
x= x0(1:2000,1);
xc = xcorr(x);
clf;
subplot(3,1,1);
plot(x);
subplot(3,1,2);
plot(xc);
[peaks,locs] = findpeaks(xc);
hold on
subplot(3,1,3)
plot(xc(locs),'ro');
and here are the plot :
and how should I consider the sampling frequency, which is : 44100 ?
You can use the autocorrelation or FFT of the signal to find where is the maximum:
% Parameters
Fc = 1e1;
Fs = 1e3;
% Signal
t = 0:1/Fs:1;
x = sin(2*pi*Fc*t);
% FFT
Y = abs(fft(x));
[~,I] = max(Y(1:floor(end/2)));
% Frequency and period
F = I-1;
T = 1/F;
% Plot
figure;
subplot(2,1,1); plot(t,x);
subplot(2,1,2); plot(Y);
disp(['The frequency is ',mat2str(F),'Hz, and the period is ',mat2str(T),'sec.']);
This and this post are related.
To go from your auto-correlation function xc to an estimate of the fundamental frequency, do:
fs = 44100; % Unit: Hz
xc = xc((length(xc) - 1) / 2 + 1: end); % Get the half on the positive time axis.
[~, pidx] = findpeaks(xc);
period = (pidx(1) - 1) / fs;
F0 = 1 / period; % Estimated fundamental frequency.
Note that there are other potentially more robust fundamental frequency / pitch estimation algorithms. Doing a google scholar search on "fundamental frequency estimation" or "pitch estimation" will lead you to some good reviews.
you find all peaks using "findpeaks" funciton, now compute the difference between each peak
P=diff(locs)
your period can be :
max(P)
The peiod of 250hz sine at 22050 sample rate, is about 88, the Frequency of your signal is equivalent at the Period if you do (Fs/Period) == Frequency
If you Know the frequency of your signal you can find the period just do Fs/Frequency
