Spectrum Visualization with Matlab Implementation
The present code is a Matlab function that provides a 3D visual representation of the spectrum obtained by a spectral analysis of a given signal x[n]. The results are:
1) 3D scatter plot of the spectrum – frequency, phase and magnitude across the x-, y- and z- axis, respectively. The magnitude of the spectral components is double coded – via the color and the size of the scatter points. The exact location of a given point on the plot could be observed using the Data Cursor;
2) optionally, mark on the significant spectrum peaks.
Four examples are given in order to clarify the usage of the function. For convenience, the input and output arguments are given in the beginning of the function.
The code is based on the theory described in:
