Syntax

step(dfv,filt)
step(dfv,B,A)

Description

step(dfv,filt) displays the time-varying magnitude response of the object filter, filt, in the Dynamic Filter Visualizer figure, as long as filt has a valid freqz() implementation.

example

step(dfv,B,A) displays the magnitude response for the digital filters with numerator and denominator polynomial coefficients stored in B1 and A1, B2 and A2, ..., and BN and AN, respectively.

Design an FIR filter with a time-varying magnitude and phase response. Plot this varying response on a dynamic filter visualizer in normalized frequency units.

Create a dsp.DynamicFilterVisualizer object. Set the PlotAsMagnitudePhase and the NormalizedFrequency properties to true.

dfv = dsp.DynamicFilterVisualizer(PlotAsMagnitudePhase=1,...
    NormalizedFrequency=true,ShowLegend=true,...
    Title="Magnitude and Phase Response",...
    FilterNames="FIR Filter")
dfv = 
  dsp.DynamicFilterVisualizer handle with properties:

               FFTLength: 2048
     NormalizedFrequency: 1
          FrequencyRange: [0 1]
                  XScale: 'Linear'
        MagnitudeDisplay: 'Magnitude (dB)'
    PlotAsMagnitudePhase: 1
             AxesScaling: 'Auto'

Vary the cutoff frequency of the FIR filter k from 0.1 to 0.5 in increments of 0.001. View the varying magnitude and phase response using the dynamic filter visualizer.

for k = 0.1:0.001:0.5
    b = designLowpassFIR(FilterOrder=90,CutoffFrequency=k);
    dfv(b,1);

Visualize the varying magnitude response of the variable bandwidth FIR filter using the dynamic filter visualizer.

Create a dsp.DynamicFilterVisualizer object.

dfv = dsp.DynamicFilterVisualizer(YLimits=[-160 10],...
    FilterNames="Variable Bandwidth FIR Filter")
dfv = 
  dsp.DynamicFilterVisualizer handle with properties:

               FFTLength: 2048
     NormalizedFrequency: 0
              SampleRate: 44100
          FrequencyRange: [0 22050]

        MagnitudeDisplay: 'Magnitude (dB)'
    PlotAsMagnitudePhase: 0

Design a bandpass variable bandwidth FIR filter with a center frequency of 5 kHz and a bandwidth of 4 kHz.

Fs = 44100;
vbw = dsp.VariableBandwidthFIRFilter(FilterType="Bandpass",...
    FilterOrder=100,...
    SampleRate=Fs,...
    CenterFrequency=5e3,...
    Bandwidth=4e3);

Vary the center frequency of the filter. Visualize the varying magnitude response of the filter using the dsp.DynamicFilterVisualizer object.

for idx  = 1:100
    dfv(vbw);
    vbw.CenterFrequency = vbw.CenterFrequency + 20;
end
