Signal Processing
To model signal processing systems in the Simulink® environment, consider using DSP System Toolbox software.
DSP System Toolbox provides algorithms and tools for the design and simulation of signal processing systems. These capabilities are provided as MATLAB® functions, MATLAB System objects, and Simulink blocks. The system toolbox includes design methods for specialized FIR and IIR filters, FFTs, multirate processing, and DSP techniques for processing streaming data and creating real-time prototypes. You can design adaptive and multirate filters, implement filters using computationally efficient architectures, and simulate floating-point digital filters. Tools for signal I/O from files and devices, signal generation, spectral analysis, and interactive visualization enable you to analyze system behavior and performance. For rapid prototyping and embedded system design, the system toolbox supports fixed-point arithmetic and C or HDL code generation.
