TheSignal Analyzerapp is an interactive tool for visualizing, measuring, analyzing, and comparing signals in the time domain, in the frequency domain, and in the time-frequency domain. The app provides a way to work with many signals of varying durations at the same time and in the same view.
Start the app by choosing it from theAppstab on the MATLAB®toolstrip. You can also start the app by typingsignalAnalyzer
at the MATLAB command prompt.

Spectrum Computation in Signal Analyzer
To compute signal spectra,Signal Analyzerfinds a compromise between the best theoretical spectral resolution and the best resolution allowed by performance constraints.
Persistence Spectrum in Signal Analyzer
The persistence spectrum contains time-dependent probabilities of occurrence of signals at given frequency locations and power levels.
Spectrogram Computation in Signal Analyzer
To display the time-dependent spectrum of a nonstationary signal,Signal Analyzerdivides the signal into overlapping Kaiser-windowed segments and computes their short-time Fourier transforms.
Scalogram Computation in Signal Analyzer
scalogram is useful for identifying signals with low-frequency components and for analyzing signals whose frequency content changes rapidly with time.
Data Types Supported by Signal Analyzer
Signal Analyzeraccepts vectors and matrices with finite elements,timeseries
objects, and MATLAB timetables.
Edit Sample Rate and Other Time Information
You can add and edit the time information in theSignal Analyzerapp for any signal that is not a MATLAB timetable or atimeseries
object.
