Hi,
To exclude bins close to DC when measuring the Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) using the ‘sfdr’ function from the Signal Processing Toolbox in MATLAB, you'll need to preprocess the signal to remove the bins close to DC before applying the ‘sfdr’ function.
1. Compute the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) of the signal.
fftSignal = fft(signal); % Perform FFT on the signal
please refer the below documentation for ‘fft’ function: https://in.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/fft.html
2. Identify the indices of the FFT bins that correspond to frequencies close to DC that you want to exclude.
3. Set those specific bins to zero to effectively remove their contribution.
fftSignal(exclusionIndices) = 0; % Zero out the bins to be excluded
4. Compute the Inverse FFT (IFFT) to get the time-domain signal with the specified bins removed.
modSignal = ifft(fftSignal, 'symmetric'); % Compute the modified signal by performing an Inverse FFT
Please refer the below documentation for ‘ifft’ function: https://in.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/ifft.html
5. Calculate the SFDR using the sfdr function on the modified signal.
sfdrValue = sfdr(modSignal, fs); % Calculate the SFDR using the modified signal
I hope this helps!
