Which Toolbox is phase() in

I have been using the trial version of matlab for the past month, however I recently bought the student version and while running my code I got the error

Undefined function or variable 'phase'.

Here are the following toolboxes I have installed (see after running "ver" command)

MATLAB                                                Version 9.4         (R2018a)
Simulink                                              Version 9.1         (R2018a)
Control System Toolbox                                Version 10.4        (R2018a)
DSP System Toolbox                                    Version 9.6         (R2018a)
Image Processing Toolbox                              Version 10.2        (R2018a)
Instrument Control Toolbox                            Version 3.13        (R2018a)
Optimization Toolbox                                  Version 8.1         (R2018a)
Signal Processing Toolbox                             Version 8.0         (R2018a)
Simulink Control Design                               Version 5.1         (R2018a)
Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox               Version 11.3        (R2018a)
Symbolic Math Toolbox                                 Version 8.1         (R2018a)

Which toolbox do I need to get for the phase() function to work?

Thanks

Interesting speculation, but the user already reported that unwrap(angle()) works for them, suggesting that their needs had nothing to do with Phased Array toolbox.

[Walter Roberson]

phase() as a routine by itself is part of the System Identification Toolbox, in the "obsolete" category.

phase() is also a method of the newer iddata() class from the System Identification Toolbox.

But what you probably want is angle() followed by unwrap(), which is part of basic MATLAB.

So is unwrap(angle(<params>)) equivalent to phase(<params>)?

[Walter Roberson]

The code has them implemented by different algorithms, but I do not seem to be able to find a difference when I test.

[Sreehari Ram Mohan]

Ok thank you, I tested it out and it works!

What is difference between unwrap(angle(X)) and phase(X)?

https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/318990-what-is-difference-between-unwrap-angle-x-and-phase-x

% X is a channel matrix of size 3 x 30
angle_ = angle(X);
angel_unwrapped_ = unwrap(angle_); % default tolerance is pi. Ref: help unwrap
for i = 1:3
  phase_(i, :) = phase(X(i, :)); % always takes only one argument. phase_ is maed to keep it continuous over the pi-borders.. Ref: help phase
end
