Spectral Analysis

[Cyrus]

Does someone have a code that would let me do a spectral analysis in matlab on a curve?

I tried using fft but I cant get it to work.

Ah I found some code online. Try it, it works!!

function [s,f]=easyspec(x,fs)
%EASYSPEC Easy plot of spectrum estimate
%         S=EASYSPEC(X) will return a spectrum vector of
%         X. [S,F]=EASYSPEC(X,FS) will also return a freuqency
%         axis in F, while the sample frequency is given in FS.
%         EASYSPEC(X) and EASYSPEC(X,FS), will plot the spectrum
%         and return the S vector in MATLAB's "ans".
%         Notes:
%         1. Spectrum values are in dB.
%         2. The frequency domain goes from DC to the Nyquist 
%            frequency. The "mirror part" of the spectrum is
%            omitted.
%         3. The sample segments, from which the spectrum is
%            calculated are picked by random. The function might
%            return significantly different results each time it's
%            called to if X isn't stationary.
%         4. EASYSPEC uses a hanning window and zero-pads by a
%            factor of 4. The spectrum vector will look smooth.
