i have excel sheet with two column which are time and amplitude data.i want create a signal using this values with .mat,.wav,.au format.but i can't import Xl data to matlab. time value accuracy is changed. actually time values are in 12:49:45 [hh:mm:ss] format.I converted its to number format.But i get this data into matlab time value precision is change as 41528.534. How to increase the decimal value precision of value in matlab? How to create the signal with above formats.
