Anyone can help me with writing code for this function?

Hi Jan Ali,
It is my understanding that you want to add three signals that are defined only in particular intervels of time. Following code might help you.
t = (-1:0.01:1); % defining time axis
unitstep1=t>=0; % unitsetp1 takes 1 only when t is greater than equal to 0
unitstep2=t>=0.1; % unitsetp2 takes 1 only when t is greater than equal to 0.1
unitstep3=t>=0.18;% unitsetp3 takes 1 only when t is greater than equal to 0.18
unitstep4=t>=0.3; % unitsetp4 takes 1 only when t is greater than equal to 0.3
rect1=unitstep1-unitstep2; % rect1 takes 1 only when 0<=t<0.1
rect2=unitstep2-unitstep3; % rect2 takes 1 only when 0.1<=t<0.18
rect3=unitstep3-unitstep4; % rect2 takes 1 only when 0.18<=t<0.3
% taking three random sine siganls
Signal1=sin(2*pi*50*t);
Signal2=sin(2*pi*150*t);
Signal3=sin(2*pi*500*t);
% Composite signal
Sc= Signal1*rect1+Signal2*rect2+Signal3*rect3;

Thanks so much dear Swetha. As you notice, there is a transient in the 0,1 to 0,18 s time interval. I also got the same plat as you did, however not able to get the same as the picture above. Anyway, I really appreciate your effort and the time you spent to get the same result.
Wish you all the bests!
Warm regards,
Ali

Dear Swetha,
I found a workaround for this problem :)
fs=2000;
t = linspace(0,0.3,1000);
s1 = sin(2*pi*30*t) + 0.2*sin(2*pi*70*t);
s2 = sin(2*pi*30*t) + 0.2*sin(2*pi*70*t) + sin(2*pi*500*t).*exp(-30*t-0.1);
s3 = sin(2*pi*30*t) + 0.2*sin(2*pi*70*t);
if 0.1 > t >= 0
s1;
elseif 0.18 > t >= 0.1
s2;
else
s3;
end
s=[s1 s2 s3];
t = linspace(0,0.3,3000);
plot(t, s, 'b')
I really appreciate your kind support and the time you spent for coding.
Wish you all the best
