Hello there, I am a new user of both simulink and matlab. I am doing some experiment for my capstone project, but I encountered an exception in simulink where I created a matlab function and want to observed the results. The matlab function should return some matrices but when I clicked "Run", the compiler throws an exception like this:

A signal of unbounded array type is not supported on 'Input Port 3' of block 'test_simulink_model/Scope'. For a list of supported data types, see the block documentation page.

However, I dont understand why is this happening and how to solve this. Could I have your advice?

Show the MATLAB Function code

Hi, thanks for your reply. I am playing around with the code like this:

function result = test_function(frequency, fft_points)

result = 0:frequency/fft_points:((frequency/2)-(frequency/fft_points));

end

This will throws the exception as I described. Should I use something elses in the simulink if I want to observe the result?

Depending on the value of frequency and fft_points, the length of "result" could vary dramatically, thus "unbounded".

In Simulink, the size of most variables is fixed, like always 5 or always [3,4]. There could be variable size data but the maximum size has to be specified. For example, specify the max size of "result" as 100. During simulation running, the actual size of "result" could be 50 or 60, as long as it is <=100.
