ripple()

This function measures the deviation of x from the average of x

Syntax
y = ripple(x, fstart, fstop)

Arguments

Name	Description	Range	Type	Required
x	can be a gain or group delay data over a given frequency range	(-∞, ∞)	real	yes
fstart	start frequency	(0, ∞)	real	no
fstop	stop frequency	(0, ∞)	real	no

Examples

a = ripple(pwr_gain(S21))
returns the ripple of the tranducer power gain of S21
a1 = ripple(pwr_gain(S21), 1GHz, 3GHz)
returns the ripple frequency between the start frequency (1GHz) and stop frequency(3GHz)
