Class SignalProcessing.PolynomialSampleGenerator
java.lang.Object
ptolemy.math.SignalProcessing.PolynomialSampleGenerator
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- DoubleUnaryOperation
- Enclosing class:
- SignalProcessing
public static class SignalProcessing.PolynomialSampleGenerator
- extends java.lang.Object
- implements DoubleUnaryOperation
This class generates samples of a polynomial.
The function computed is:
h(t) = a0 + a1t + a2t2 + ...
+ an-1tn-1
or
h(t) = a0 + a1t-1
+ a2t-2 + ...
+ an-1t-(n-1)
depending on the direction specified.

SignalProcessing.PolynomialSampleGenerator
public SignalProcessing.PolynomialSampleGenerator(double[] coefficients,
int direction)
- Construct a PolynomialSampleGenerator. The input argument is
an array of doubles
a[0] = a0 .. a[n-1] = an-1 used to compute
the formula :
h(t) = a0 + a1t + ... + an-1tn-1
The array of doubles must be of length 1 or greater.
The array of doubles is copied, so the user is free to modify
it after construction.
The exponents on t in the above equation will all be negated if
the direction parameter is -1; otherwise the direction parameter
should be 1.
- Parameters:
coefficients
- An array of double coefficients.direction
- 1 for positive exponents, -1 for negative
exponents.
operate
public final double operate(double time)
- Return a sample of the line, sampled at the specified time.
Note that at time = 0, with a negative direction, the sample
will be positive or negative infinity.
- Specified by:
operate
in interface DoubleUnaryOperation
- Parameters:
time
- The operand.
- Returns:
- The results of the operation.
