MATLAB Implementation of NATURAL SAMPLING, With MATLAB Code

Natural Sampling
In this type of sampling, the resultant signal follows the natural shape of the input during the sampling interval.
The sampling function can be regarded as a form of multiplication. An output occurs when the input is multiplied by 1, but nothing emerges when it is multiplied by zero.

Sample Input:
Enter the Frequency of Carrier Signal(square wave) = 100
Enter the Frequency of Message Signal(sine wave) = 20
Enter the Amplitude of Message Signal = 5
