Matlab chirp duration is longer than it should be

Time:10-02

I am learning Matlab and now using the function chirp.

freq = 1/11025; duration = 1.5; c = 0:freq:duration; y = chirp(c,0,150,duration)

The problem is, that it doesn't stop at 1.5. Instead it stops at 1.65 . But I don't know why.

CodePudding user response:

Your interpretation of the chirp() function is not correct. Here is how you can create a fully customizable chirp function via the dsp.Chirp:

hChirp = dsp.Chirp(...
    'TargetFrequency', 10, ...
    'InitialFrequency', 0,...
    'TargetTime', 10, ...
    'SweepTime', 10, ...
    'SamplesPerFrame', 10000, ...
    'SampleRate', 1000);

plot(hChirp()); set(gcf, 'color', 'w'), grid on;
title('Chirp to 10 Hz')

Which gives the following output in this example: Chirp to 10 Hz

You can refer to the documentation for further detail. This should be a more rigorous way of defining your signal.
