There are many types of random signals. You need to be more specific. For example, I assume that the wind (red points) is autocorrelated in some way, and that the load (blue points) is correlated with the wind. Can you provide some details about that?

With the information from your latest Comment, one possibility is:
t = 0:200;
smax = 1.5;
smin = -0.8;
s = smin + (smax-smin)*rand(1,length(t));
figure(1)
plot(t, s)
grid

Apologise for the delay — life intrudes.
I believe you intend ‘transfer function’.
To use it with the signal I programmed, you will have to create a discrete expression of your transfer function, from ‘s’ to ‘z’. I would use the bilinear transform. Then use the filtfilt function for the actual filtering. (Your transfer function would actually be a filter in this instance.) If you have the Signal Processing Toolbox, all this is relatively straightforward but will take some time to learn if you are not familiar with it.
The MATLAB documentation, along with most signal processing textbooks, go into sufficient detail to allow you to do the conversion to the discrete form of your filter and the subsequent filtering relatively easily. It is much too involved for me to go into here, so I will refer you to the documentation and your textbooks.

Create a mat file like this one
t=0:0.1:10
y=rand(1,numel(t))
ty=[t;y]
save filename ty
In your simulink model add the from file block and set the file name to your mat-file name

Can you please generate triangle or carrier signal starts from 0 to 60 degree and stops and then starts from 120 to 180 and then repeat itself, either by coding or simulink, please?

Θ uniformly random [-pi, pi]
W(𝑡) is Guassian with mu=0 & sigma=No/2

You should really open a new question instead of inserting your question as an answer to a 6 year old question.
If you provide the code that you have written to try to solve your problem and show us what errors you get when your run it, you are likely to get someone to help you fix it. If you appear to be asking us to do all of the work for you, you will be less likely to get help.
