complex_optimizable_pwc_signal

The Boulder Opal Toolkits are currently in beta phase of development. Breaking changes may be introduced.

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

  • name (str, optional) – The name of the node.

Returns:

The optimizable piecewise-constant signal.

Return type:

Pwc

complex_pwc_signal()

Create a complex piecewise-constant signal from moduli and phases.

optimization_variable()

Create optimization variables, which can be bounded, semi-bounded, or unbounded.

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.utils.real_optimizable_signal to create signals for the real and imaginary parts, which you can pass to graph.complex_value.
