Input/Output Ports sublibrary of the Physical library
The Input Port block serves as a connecting port from the Simulink, or mathematical, part of the model to an RF physical part of the model. The Input Port block lets you provide the parameter data needed to calculate the modeling frequencies and the baseband-equivalent impulse response for the physical subsystem.
For more information about how the Input Port block converts the mathematical Simulink signals to RF Blockset physical modeling environment signals, see Converting to and from Simulink Signals. For more information about connecting mathematical and physical parts of a model, see Modeling an RF System.

Desired length of the baseband-equivalent impulse response for the physical model. The longer the FIR filter in the time domain, the finer the frequency resolution in the frequency domain. The frequency resolution is approximately equal to 1/ (Finite impulse response filter length*Sample time (s)). For a graphical representation of this parameter, see Baseband-Equivalent Modeling.
Note The RF Blockset algorithm uses the next power of 2 greater than the specified filter length in its calculations and then truncates the impulse response to the specified length. As a result, you get different results when you set the Finite impulse response filter length parameter to a number that is not a power of 2. For more information about how the software calculates the baseband-equivalent impulse response, see Calculating the Baseband-Equivalent Impulse Response. |
Fraction of modeling bandwidth over which to taper the edges of the transfer function of the system when creating the baseband-equivalent model. This parameter defines the ratio of the bandwidth of sections that are tapered using a Tukey, or cosine-tapered, window to the bandwidth of the constant, or untapered, sections.
A value less than or equal to 0 tells the Input Port block to use a rectangular (rectwin) window. A value greater than or equal to 1 tells the Input Port block to use a hann window.
The blockset uses the Signal Processing Toolbox tukeywin function to generate the window. The following figure shows the resulting frequency-domain window for several values of the Fractional bandwidth of guard bands parameter.

See Creating a Complex Baseband-Equivalent Model for information about how the Input Port block applies this window to reduce the Gibbs phenomenon (also known as ringing), and other artifacts in the baseband-equivalent model of the system.
Number of time samples by which to delay the impulse response of the baseband-equivalent model to ensure that the baseband-equivalent model has a causal response.
See Creating a Complex Baseband-Equivalent Model for information on how the Input Port block applies this delay to ensure a causal response.
Center of the modeling frequencies. See the Output Port block reference page for information about calculating the modeling frequencies.
Time interval between consecutive samples of the input signal.
Note The Input Port block does not automatically inherit a sample time from its input signal. The specified Sample time (s) value must match the sample time of the input signal. |
Source impedance of the RF network described in the physical model to which it connects.
If you select this parameter, noise data in the RF physical blocks that are bracketed by the Input Port block and Output Port block is taken into consideration. If you do not select this parameter, noise data is ignored.
Nonnegative integer specifying the initial seed for the random number generator the block uses to generate noise. This parameter becomes visible if you select the Add noise parameter.
