5.7 Plotting Sampled Signals

This section describes two new functions for plotting discrete signals. These follow a common convention found in signal processing texts by plotting discrete signals using vertical lines.
LinePlot[{y1, y2 , ...}]plots a list of values using vertical lines of height yi at position i
LinePlot[{{x1, y1}, {x2, y2}, ...}] plotsyi at position xi
LinePlot3D[mat, {x, xmin, xmax}, {y, ymin, ymax}] plots a matrix mat as a sampled function on a grid defined by x and y

LinePlot functions.

This loads the package.
In[1]:=
The function may also be used to plot a simple list of y values and a list of pairs of x, y values, as in the built-in ListPlot function.
In[2]:=
This plots the signal sig using the default plot style.
In[3]:=
Out[3]=Out[3]=
Here is a stick plot of 2D data.
In[4]:=
In[5]:=
Out[5]=Out[5]=

Options for LinePlot.

The style of points and lines in LinePlot and LinePlot3D may be controlled with options PointStyle and LineStyle. Here is an example.
