Hi,

I create two codes that communicate together through a TCP connexion (one compute, two Matlab instances open). One is the server, the second is the client. My goal is to simulate the recording of signal from an amplifier. The server act as the amplifier, the client as my GUI that record the signal.

In the server I load a data file of signal, which contains 120 channels by XX samples. To simulate the connexion with an amplifier, I use a timer and write every 0.1 second a package of few samples equivalent to the samplifing frequency of the real amplifier (2048 Hz).

This package is a piece of signal cut from the original signal in the function of timer. This package is a matrix of 120 by XXsamples double that I reshape in a 1 by XX samples and turn it in int16 to be written by the server.

The client is running also with a timer, every 0.2 second. The client read in the TCP connexion what is available. So it gets one or more packages reshaped 1 by XX samples int16. Then, I do the opposite operation in the client, turn it back to double and reshape it in a 120 by XXsamples matrix.

My issue is the recomposed signal in the client when plotted doesn't look like the orignal one, and the reason is the concatenation make me losing the orginal package 'orgnisation', when I reshape, I think I'm not reshaping my signal in a good way. And I don't find any answer of how to do it.

Is there a way to send package of signal and to read them and reorganize them correctly ?

You can find below the two codes I did: the server first then the client.

Thank you in advance

Hey @Mikael Jonathan, can you attach the "contraction30sec120channels2048Hz.mat" file?

Mikael Jonathan 2024-8-27

contraction30sec120channels2048Hz.mat

Hi @Animesh, thank you for your interest in my issue.

Here is a like to the file:

https://www.transfernow.net/dl/20240827Q8x6kCKS

Or I linked a smaller version were I reduced the number of samples (to be below the limit of the 5mb)

Hi Mikael,

You have mentioned that the package signal is a matrix of 120 by XX samples. But the provided mat file is of the format XX by 120. So, I believe that the discrepancy that you are facing is because of the package you are sending.

In the server code make the following change:

DataReShapePackage = reshape(package', [], 1); % Transpose to get [120, XX] and then reshape

Transposing the package matrix would make the signal a 120 by XX matrix. This is the output that I’ve obtained by making the following change:

I believe this is the desired output. Hope this helps!

Hi @Sivsankar, you indeed found the solution, I just did several trials, it was this transposition that I missed. Thank you very much !
