Unrecognized function or variable 'vR'.
Error in rectifier_code (line 60)
plot(t,vS,'--',t,vR)
I am starring at this program trying to understand why I cannot get it to run. Is it the for loop that is not defined properly that is causing the program not to define vR?
% Specify amplitude of source voltage
A = 1;
% Specify the frequency (in Hz) of the source voltage
f = 60;
% Specify the value of the capacitor (in micro-Farads)

% Loop over the time vector

% SET UP SWITCH STRUCTURE
switch diode %%% SWITCH CODE HERE

case 1 %%% CASE CODE HERE
vR(k) = vS(k); % resistor voltage is equal to source voltage
iR(k) = vR(k)/R; % i = v/R (Ohm's law)
iC(k) = C * 2*pi*f * A*cos(2*pi*f*t(k)); % capacitor current
iD(k) = iR(k) + iC(k); % current through the diode
if iD(k) <= 0,
diode = 'off';
t_off = t(k); % keep track of the time of diode turn-off
end

vR is never defined because none of your switch cases are ever satisfied. One solution:
switch diode %%% SWITCH CODE HERE
case 'on' % RUN THE CASE WHEN THE DIODE IS ON
....
case 'off' % RUN THE CASE WHEN THE DIODE IS OFF
....
otherwise
error 'Unrecognized case';
end
