Dear all,
I have two long data vectors which are slightly delayed.
I am trying to find the delay time each time, a third variable of TRUE (1). In the picture below a screenshot of the data, where the grey signal is slightly delayed, and the pink signal the enabling condition.
To find the delay time, I am thinking of finding the gradient of the two signals and compare them. I then want to find the maximum value of the signal and find the 63% value which will give me tau.
Finding the gradient of the signals:
signal_1_gradient = diff(signal_1)./diff(time)signal_2_gradient = diff(signal_1)./diff(time)
For filtering the gradient signal:
b = (1/6)*ones(1,6);a = 1;signal_1_gradient_filt = filter(b,a,signal_1);signal_2_gradient_filt = filter(b,a,signal_2);
And finding the index where enabling conditions are met:
index = find(enabling_conditions == 1)signal_1_gradient_filt = signal_1_gradient_filt(index)signal_1_gradient_filt = signal_1_gradient_filt(index)
It would be easiest for me, if I get multiple short vectors (in a structure) with all the periods where the enabling conditions were met. But I cannot find out how to split the vectors once I found the total index where enabling conditions were met.
From this I think it's not so hard to find the gradients for each phase.
Thanks a lot, and please ask me if something is not clear.
