Generate sample data: ten sinusoidal voltage records, with random variation in amplitude and frequency:
t=0:.5:24;
v=(rand(10,1)-.5).*cos((1+rand(10,1))*t);
Plot the traces as ten 2D records, on one plot:
figure; plot(t,v(1,:),'-ro',t,v(2,:),'-go',t,v(3,:),'-bo') %v1 to v3
hold on;
plot(t,v(4,:),'-rx',t,v(5,:),'-gx',t,v(6,:),'-bx') %v4 to v6
plot(t,v(7,:),'-r+',t,v(8,:),'-g+',t,v(9,:),'-b+',t,v(10,:),'-r*')
legend('Bus 1','Bus 2','Bus 3','Bus 4','Bus 5','Bus 6','Bus 7','Bus 8','Bus 9','Bus 10');
If you want paralell plots that looks three dimensional, you could do
bus=(1:10)'.*ones(size(v)); %create array with the bus numbers
figure; %new figure for plotting
plot3(t,bus(1,:),v(1,:),'-ro',t,bus(2,:),v(2,:),'-go',t,bus(3,:),v(3,:),'-bo') %v1,v2,v3
grid on; hold on;
plot3(t,bus(4,:),v(4,:),'-rx',t,bus(5,:),v(5,:),'-gx',t,bus(6,:),v(6,:),'-bx') %v4,v5,v6
legend('Bus 1','Bus 2','Bus 3','Bus 4','Bus 5','Bus 6'); %add legend
xlabel('Time'); ylabel('Bus'); zlabel('Voltage'); %add axis labels
You can click and drag on the plot above, to rotate it. Obviously, you could add a line of code for v7 to v10. Or you could use a for loop that loops over i=1:10 to do all ten. Try it. Good luck.
