Hello,
I have a signal shown above.
- First I want to identify the duration(length) of each zero valued regions represented as T, T1, T2, T3 etc., (You may generate any signal with zeroed region similar to my graph)
- Count how many such zero valued regions are there in 1 sec(or within a specified time).
Any help interms of code is well appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Use regionprops
time = 0:100;
signal = rand(size(time));
signal([3:6,15:21,43:55,61:64,87:92]) = 0;
plot(time,signal)
r = regionprops(signal==0,"SubarrayIdx");
for k = 1:length(r)
time_indexes = r(k).SubarrayIdx{2};
durations(k) = time(time_indexes(end))-time(time_indexes(1));
end
durations
Obviously, the number of zero regions is the length of the array durations.

That's because it seems you don't have any set of consecutive zeros, but rather many isolated ones
T = readmatrix('data.csv');
time = T(:,1);
signal = T(:,2);
plot(time,signal)
find(signal==0) % indexes of signal array where signal is zero
What you could do is define a threshold to define small values as equal to zero. Be careful, depending on the threshold value you might significantly change your signal.
thr = 0.5;
signal(signal > -thr & signal < thr) = 0;
plot(time,signal)
r = regionprops(signal==0,"SubarrayIdx");
for k = 1:length(r)
time_indexes = r(k).SubarrayIdx{1};
durations(k) = time(time_indexes(end))-time(time_indexes(1));
end
Because of the noise of your signal, it will still find single zero values or very small zero intervals, which I assume you don't want to see.
Set a new threshold defining that you want only intervals that are larger than a certain time span.
durations(durations<0.0005) = []
In this way, it finds only the intervals that you can see with the naked eye in the plot (in fact, it's five of them).
By fiddling around with the various thresholds, you can refine your code further.

Or, more simply
zeroRegions = (signal == 0); % Identify elements that are exactly 0.
% Throw out runs less than, say, 3 elements long.
zeroRegions = bwareaopen(zeroRegions, 3);
% Measure what's left (regions 3 or more elements long).
r = regionprops(zeroRegions,"Area");
durations = [r.Area] % Extract all run lengths from structure into vector.
