Question

Hello all,

I have a noisy sinisoid signal and would like to compute its SNR in MATLAB. Can anybody help me? Thanks.

What is the amplitude of the sine wave?
Is the noise additive white Gaussian or some other type? If Gaussian, what is the mean and standard deviation?

Here is my code. I actually want to find the SNR of my output filter 'yf'. I was wondering if you could please help me.

{

dt = 1/5e4;fs=1/dt;

t1=cos(2*pi*1e3*(0:dt:6e-3));

t2=cos(2*pi*2e3*(0:dt:6e-3));

t3=cos(2*pi*3.5e3*(0:dt:6e-3));

t4=3*cos(2*pi*20e3*(linspace(2e-3,2.1e-3,length(t3))));

x=t1+t2+t3+t4;

y=awgn(x,10,'measured');

wpass=2*1e4/fs; wstop=2*2e4/fs; %normalized passband & stopband frequencies

[N,wn]=buttord(wpass,wstop,1,50); %Rpass=1dB & Rstop=50dB

[B A]=butter(N,wn); % use butter to obtain an IIR filter of Butterworth type

yf=filtfilt(B,A,y);}
