Matlab:Gaussian Model with Variable Mean and Standard Deviation

Question

I would like to add Gaussian noise Model with variable Standard Deviation (Sigma) and Variable Mean (Mu) to my Output Curve which is shown in the figure below

Following function generates the Output curve expressed in the figure above

function c_t = output_function_constrainedK2(t, a1, a2, a3,b1,b2,b3,td, tmax,k1,k2,k3)

K_1   = (k1*k2)/(k2+k3);
K_2   = (k1*k3)/(k2+k3);
DV_free= k1/(k2+k3);


c_t = zeros(size(t));

ind = (t > td) & (t < tmax);


c_t(ind)= conv(((t(ind) - td) ./ (tmax - td) * (a1 + a2 + a3)),(K_1*exp(-(k2+k3)*t(ind)+K_2)),'same');


ind = (t >= tmax);


c_t(ind)= conv((a1 * exp(-b1 * (t(ind) - tmax))+ a2 * exp(-b2 * (t(ind) - tmax))) + a3 * exp(-b3 * (t(ind) - tmax)),(K_1*exp(-(k2+k3)*t(ind)+K_2)),'same');



plot(t,c_t);
axis([0 50  0 1400]);
xlabel('Time[mins]');
ylabel('concentration [Mbq]');
title('Model :Constrained K2');
end

The output values for the above function are

 output_function_constrainedK2(0:0.1:50,2501,18500,65000,0.5,0.7,0.3,...
 0.28,0.9,0.014,0.051,0.07)

Now i would like to add the Gaussian probability distribution function with variable Standard deviation Sigma and mean to the above function, could any one please help me through this , I am an absolute beginner to matlab

between these lines

c_t(ind)= conv((a1 * exp(-b1 * (t(ind) - tmax))+ a2 * exp(-b2 * (t(ind) - tmax))) + a3 * exp(-b3 * (t(ind) - tmax)),(K_1*exp(-(k2+k3)*t(ind)+K_2)),'same');

plot(t,c_t);

add the following

c_t = c_t + normrnd(mu,sigma,length(c_t),1)

refer to the normrnd documentation for more information about the normrnd function. Or type

help normrnd

in the matlab console.

edit to correct this answer according to your last comment:

leave c_t as before, and you will have to create a new vector:

c_t_noise = c_t + normrnd(mu,sigma,1,length(c_t))

also changed the order of parameteres in normrnd to fit your dimension. to plot the two curves, just use the extended plot, like this:

plot(t,c_t, t,c_t_noise)

or do a hold on like this

plot(t,c_t)
hold on %tells matlab to put plots in the same figure
plot(t,c_t_noise)
hold off %this line if you pretend to make some other plot, desactivate hold on

more info about "hold" function in matlab console
