Compute the peak-magnitude-to-RMS ratio of a 100 Hz sinusoid sampled at 1 kHz.
t = 0:0.001:1-0.001; x = cos(2*pi*100*t); y = peak2rms(x)
y = 1.4142
Create a complex exponential with a frequency of rad/sample. Find the peak-magnitude-to-RMS ratio.
n = 0:99; x = exp(1j*pi/4*n); y = peak2rms(x)
y = 1
Create a matrix in which each column is a 100 Hz sinusoid sampled at 1 kHz with a different amplitude. The amplitude is equal to the column index.
Compute the peak-magnitude-to-RMS ratios of the columns.
t = 0:0.001:1-0.001; x = cos(2*pi*100*t)'*(1:4); y = peak2rms(x)
y = 1×4 1.4142 1.4142 1.4142 1.4142
Create a matrix in which each row is a 100 Hz sinusoid sampled at 1 kHz with a different amplitude. The amplitude is equal to the row index.
Compute the RMS levels of the rows, specifying the dimension equal to 2 with the
t = 0:0.001:1-0.001; x = (1:4)'*cos(2*pi*100*t); y = peak2rms(x,2)
y = 4×1 1.4142 1.4142 1.4142 1.4142
x— Input array
Input signal, specified as a vector, matrix, N-D array, or
Complex Number Support: Yes
dim— Dimension to operate along
Dimension to operate along, specified as a positive integer scalar. By default,
peak2rms operates along the first array dimension of
x with size greater than 1. For example, if
x is a row or column vector,
y is a
real-valued scalar. If
x is an
N-by-M matrix with
N > 1,
y is a
1-by-M row vector containing the peak-magnitude-to-RMS levels of
the columns of
Peak-magnitude-to-RMS ratio, specified as a real-valued scalar, matrix,
N-D array, or
The peak-magnitude-to-RMS ratio is
where the infinity-norm and RMS values are computed along the specified dimension.
