Dear all,
I want to generate a signal similar to the one in the following picture (black line only).
How can I do that.
I tried to do it by hand and I obtained the next picture
The thing is that I need more resolution (I have now 41 points and I need to have 4096). How can I do that?
Thanks in advance,

What does "do it by hand" mean? How did you actually get that second plot above?
Do you mean that you had an image of the graph and you used something like drawfreehand() to hand-trace the curve? And then plotted the coordinates that you traced? If you need more than drawfreehand() gave you, you can just use interp1().

x = linspace(0, 0.015, 41); % Independent Variable
y = randn(size(x)); % Synthesize Signal
xi = linspace(min(x), max(x), 4096);
yi = interp1(x, y, xi, 'linear');
figure
subplot(2,1,1)
plot(x, y, '.-')
grid
title('Original Signal')
subplot(2,1,2)
plot(xi, yi, '.-')
grid
title('Interpolated Original Signal Shjowing Interpolated Points')
figure
subplot(2,1,1)
plot(x, y, '.-')
grid
title('Original Signal')
xlim([4.1 4.15]*1E-3)
subplot(2,1,2)
plot(xi, yi, '.-')
grid
title('Interpolated Original Signal Shjowing Interpolated Points')
xlim([4.1 4.15]*1E-3)

The original and interpolated vectors are plotted as dots connected by lines.
