The following function represents the output characteristics of Tracer in 50 minute time interval ( The Y-Axis-Mbq and X-Axis : Time in minutes)

Now i would like to Sample the Output Curve into 19 frames

4 frames : Each of 15 seconds time interval
2 frames : Each of 30 seconds time interval
2 frames : Each of 60 seconds time interval
11 frames : Each of 200 seconds time interval

and plot each of the Respective frames in a plot, kindly suggest me some methodology to approach this problem

Solution

If I understand correctly, you have for the corresponding x-values time from 0 to 50 minutes, so since you have 500 samples you have 10 samples per minute or an interval of 6 seconds between samples.

To get samples at a different rate, you can interpolate your signal using interp1. If the signal you gave above is stored in Y, you can interpolate it to 15 second intervals using:

x = 0:6:3000; % The original sample time, in seconds
xi = 0:15:3000; % The interpolated sample time, in seconds
Yi = interp1(x, Y, xi);

You can interpolate to any specified x-value within the original data, so for the varying sample rate you require you can define:

xi = [0:15:60, 90:30:120, 180:60:240, 440:200:2240];

Plotting of curves in MATLAB is usually done using the plot function. For your interpolated data you can use:

figure;
plot(xi / 60, Yi);
xlabel('Time [min]');
ylabel('Signal [units]');
title('My signal');

Note how the time units have been changed from seconds to minutes for the plot. The rest of the commands given here are useful for plotting as well. figure creates a new figure window for the plot and xlabel, ylabel and title are used to annotate it.
