ロジックアナライザのメモリ制限に対する解決策

MATLAB関数の概要

添付のMATLABコード（付録AのStitchMatricesと付録BのFindStitchPoint)は、上記のトピックを組み合わせて使い易い1つの関数にしたものです。これらの関数は、2つのデータセット(MATLABの1列のマトリクス)と複数の入力引数を受け取り、これによってアドバンスド/リバースコードステッチング機能が利用可能になります。FindStitchPointルーチンは、データセットAとBのオフセットを識別します。StitchMatricesルーチンは、FindStitchPointルーチンで得られたオフセットを使用してデータセットAとBを廃棄および結合します。さらに、最終データセットのステッチングポイントは、後処理のためにPrevStitchBinsマトリクスに記録されます。複数のデータセットをステッチングするとき、PrevStitchBinsは古いステッチングポイントの位置を保存します。

結論

2つのデータセットをステッチングすることにより、受け入れ可能な結果を得ることができます。図6は、上述のステッチング法を使用してステッチングした8192ポイントの3つのデータセットのFFTグラフです(5つのステッチングポイントを使用)。得られるFFTは、上記の図2aで示される16384ポイントの連続データセットにほぼ等しくなります。

図6. コードのステッチングによって、正確なFFTグラフが生成されます。
