      hi everybody.i want to know how can i export the data from optisystem to matlab.i want to calculate the SNR as i signed from the picture i attached.by the way, how can i extinguish the signal and noise if i select “convert to noise bin”.thank you all of you in advance.

      Hi Joseph, the best way to do it is to add a signal fork at the location at which you would like to retrieve the data. This fork should be connected to Matlab component. A Matlab file will be created.

        hi,ravil,thankyou for your reply!what i really want to know is how to write the matlab code to export the data to calculate the SNR!

          In my opinion, you can create an m-file that reads in an your signal and horizontally concatenates the vector (from each sweep) to an array (thus creating a large signal array representing all the sweeps). For example, a “SweepNum” parameter is first setup in the global parameters (from 1 to N), followed by the “Amplitude” of your Oscilloscope Visualizer…

          dear ravil.i understand you,however i am not familar the matlab code in cosimulation in optisystem and matlab especially the interface between optisystem and matlab.can you help me?thank you!

          Your first step should be to understand how the co-simulation works! Although not hard it can be a bit confusing. Two things I would suggest is first reading about data structures in Matlab in the help section and searching the forum here for Matlab examples.

          There is also a youtube video we made about the process:

          Matlab Binary Switch

          hi DAMIAN,I HAVE TRIED ALL you said including searching all about cosimulation between optisystem and matlab in the forum and i can understand all the examples in the help doc.however if i tried to write matlab code to export data to matlab,i found it is a little hard.and i have another question is that how can i calculate the SNR if i had export the data when the global parameter setting “convert noise bin”.thank you!

      If you are working with multiple sweeps a signal-vector array will be created. Matlab file will be linked to the name of your visualizer…

      According to your 2nd question, did you consider the ‘Signal’ and ‘Noise’ tabs of your visualizer screen?

        RAVIL,AS you know,if we select the global parameter,the signal and noise would transmitted together,so it is necessary to extinguish what is signal and what is noise to get the SNR as i refered to.

      Joseph, as an example, here is the matlab code which I used for multiple sweeps of pulse generator (with the parameters I defined above)

      i = SweepNum;
      SignalVector = InputPort1.Sampled.Signal’;
      if i == 1
      TotalSignal = SignalVector;
      else
      TotalSignal = horzcat(TotalSignal,SignalVector);
      end

      If I get the code for your case I’ll let you know. Good luck!

        Ravil,
        I tried this code, it works fine for one iteration, but for the next, it is giving me the error of mismatched matrix dimensions.
        Any solution for that ?

      Joseph Jiang, I’d like to know if you were able to find the snr in matlab.

      Hi Jiseph,
      I don’t think that we could export data from optisystem to MATLAB.
      Although i could design the networks using MAtlab code.

      Thanks,
