The Problem

The following code has a bug that prevents it from working properly.

F0 =13;
T0 =1/F0;
Ts = 0.07;
t  = 0:Ts:13*T0;
x = real(exp(j*(2*pi*F0*t-pi/2)));
plot(t,x)

The Solution

Ts is much too large for this application. The value of 0.07 that is given in the original code is nearly the size of one cycle. Reducing Ts by a factor of 100 would greatly help.

The final code should look something like this:

F0 =13;
T0 =1/F0;
Ts = 0.0007;
t  = 0:Ts:13*T0;
x = real(exp(j*(2*pi*F0*t-pi/2)));
plot(t,x)

Alumni Liaison

Basic linear algebra uncovers and clarifies very important geometry and algebra.
