complex_optimizable_pwc_signal

Graph.complex_optimizable_pwc_signal(segment_count, duration, maximum, initial_values=None, *, name=None)

Create a complex optimizable piecewise-constant signal.

Parameters:
  • segment_count (int) – The number of segments of the signal.

  • duration (float) – The duration of the signal.

  • maximum (float) – The upper bound for the modulus of the signal values.

  • initial_values (np.ndarray or list[np.ndarray] or None, optional) – Initial values for the signal. You can either provide a single array, or a list of them. If a list of arrays is used, they must have the same length. Defaults to None, meaning the optimizer initializes the variables with random values.

  • name (str or None, optional) – The name of the node.

Returns:

The optimizable piecewise-constant signal.

Return type:

Pwc

Notes

Note that this function sets limits to the modulus of the signal.

If you want to set (different) limits to the real and imaginary parts instead, consider using graph.real_optimizable_signal to create signals for the real and imaginary parts, which you can pass to graph.complex_value.
