Beyond the Basics: Advanced MATLAB Techniques for the Modern Engineer

Robust Control Toolbox -- Ensure system stability under uncertainty.

Example of a simple control system analysis:

sys = tf([1], [1, 10, 20]); bode(sys);

This generates a Bode plot, essential for frequency domain analysis.

9. Advanced Signal Processing Techniques

MATLAB's Signal Processing Toolbox enables engineers to:

• Filter noisy data using custom-designed FIR and IIR filters.

• Analyze frequency components with FFT (Fast Fourier Transform).

• Detect patterns in real-time sensor data.

Example of filtering a noisy signal:

fs = 1000; t = 0:1/fs:1; x = sin(2*pi*50*t) + 0.5*randn(size(t)); y = lowpass(x, 100, fs); plot(t, x, t, y);
