first seven fourier coefficient of a rectified sine wave in matlab

To find the first seven Fourier coefficients of a rectified sine wave in MATLAB, you can follow these steps:

  1. Generate the rectified sine wave signal.
  2. Use the fft function to compute the Fourier coefficients.
  3. Extract the first seven coefficients.

Here's an example MATLAB code snippet to achieve this:

main.m
% Generate a rectified sine wave signal
t = 0:0.001:1; % Time vector
x = abs(sin(2*pi*5*t)); % Rectified sine wave with frequency 5 Hz

% Compute the Fourier coefficients
N = length(x); % Number of samples
X = fft(x) / N; % Compute the Fourier transform and normalize

% Extract the first seven coefficients
X_seven = X(1:7);

% Display the first seven Fourier coefficients
disp(X_seven);

In this code, we first generate a rectified sine wave signal x. Then, we compute the Fourier coefficients using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and normalize by the total number of samples. Finally, we extract the first seven coefficients and display them.
