Matlab - Add reference line in a bode plot

# Add reference line in a bode plot Sometimes, adding a reference line can explain a lot in a plot. For PLL noise transfer functions, the reference noise transfer function has a low pass characteristic. The VCO noise transfer function has a high pass characteristic. The PLL bandwidth splits the noise plot into two regions: - phase noise of VCO dominates the high frequencies because its noise transfer function have no effect in this region - phase noise of references and phase detector dominates the low frequency region image-20231211210530923 > noise transfer functions of the reference and VCO Therefore, it is useful to show the PLL bandwidth in the plot. New version Matlab provides a 'xline' function, vertical line with constant x-value, to plot a line in a plot.

Example code is shown below: 122
