plotting a signal which has two equations

I am trying to plot this signal whose eqaution differs according to time

I have created this code but I do not know if it is the right way to do it and how get the values of S_if from if statment to plot it

f0=24*10^8;

B=10^6;

T_sweep=2*10^-3;

fmin=f0-0.5*B;

fmax=f0+0.5*B;

t=0:10^-3:500*10^-3;

r=250;

vt=40;

tao=2*(r-vt*t);

gamma=B/T_sweep;

At=1;

Ar=1;

t_telda=rem(t,T_sweep);

for n=1:250

if (t>=2*n*T_sweep) & (t<(2*n+1)*T_sweep)

S_if=0.5*At*Ar*cos(2*pi*gamma*r*t_telda+2*pi*fmin*tao);

elseif (t>=(2*n+1)*T_sweep) & (t<2*(n+1)*T_sweep)

S_if=0.5*At*Ar*cos(2*pi*gamma*r*t_telda-2*pi*fmax*tao);

end

end

plot(t,S_if)

None of the two if conditions is satisfied for your t-array. Thus the array S_if does not exist after the for-loop - even if you change the code to

f0=24*10^8;
B=10^6;
T_sweep=2*10^-3;
fmin=f0-0.5*B;
fmax=f0+0.5*B;
t=0:10^-3:500*10^-3;
r=250;
vt=40;
tao=2*(r-vt*t);
gamma=B/T_sweep;
At=1;
Ar=1;
for n=1:250
    t_telda=rem(t(n),T_sweep);
    if (t(n)>=2*n*T_sweep) & (t(n)<(2*n+1)*T_sweep)
        S_if(n)=0.5*At*Ar*cos(2*pi*gamma*r*t_telda+2*pi*fmin*tao(n));    
    elseif  (t(n)>=(2*n+1)*T_sweep) & (t(n)<2*(n+1)*T_sweep)
        S_if(n)=0.5*At*Ar*cos(2*pi*gamma*r*t_telda-2*pi*fmax*tao(n));    
    end
end
plot(t,S_if)
