Signal Operations
dspsigops
The Triggered Signal From Workspace block imports signal samples
from the MATLAB workspace into the Simulink model when triggered
by the control signal at the input port (
). The Signal parameter
specifies the name of a MATLAB workspace variable containing
the signal to import, or any valid MATLAB expression defining
a matrix or 3-D array.
When the Signal parameter specifies an M-by-N matrix (M≠1), each of the N columns is treated as a distinct channel. You specify the frame size in the Samples per frame parameter, Mo, and the output when triggered is an Mo-by-N matrix containing Mo consecutive samples from each signal channel. For Mo=1, the output is sample based; otherwise the output is frame based. For convenience, an imported row vector (M=1) is treated as a single channel, so the output dimension is Mo-by-1.
When the Signal parameter specifies an M-by-N-by-P array, the block generates a single page of the array (an M-by-N matrix) at each trigger time. The Samples per frame parameter must be set to 1, and the output is always sample based.
You specify the triggering event at the input port in the Trigger type pop-up menu:
Rising edge triggers execution of the block when the trigger input rises from a negative value to zero or a positive value, or from zero to a positive value.
Falling edge triggers execution of the block when the trigger input falls from a positive value to zero or a negative value, or from zero to a negative value.
Either edge triggers execution of the block when either a rising or falling edge (as described above) occurs.
The Initial output parameter specifies the output of the block from the start of the simulation until the first trigger event arrives. Between trigger events, the block holds the output value constant at its most recent value (that is, no linear interpolation takes place). For single-channel signals, the Initial output parameter value can be a vector of length Mo or a scalar to repeat across the Mo elements of the initial output frames. For matrix outputs (Mo-by-N or M-by-N), the Initial output parameter value can be a matrix of the same size or a scalar to be repeated across all elements of the initial output.
When the block has output all of the available signal samples, it can start again at the beginning of the signal, or simply repeat the final value or generate zeros until the end of the simulation. (The block does not extrapolate the imported signal beyond the last sample.) The Form output after final data value by parameter controls this behavior:
When you specify Setting To Zero, the block generates zero-valued outputs for the duration of the simulation after generating the last frame of the signal.
When you specify Holding Final Value, the block repeats the final sample for the duration of the simulation after generating the last frame of the signal.
When you specify Cyclic Repetition, the block repeats the signal from the beginning after generating the last frame. When there are not enough samples at the end of the signal to fill the final frame, the block zero-pads the final frame as necessary to ensure that the output for each cycle is identical (for example, the ith frame of one cycle contains the same samples as the ith frame of any other cycle).
The name of the MATLAB workspace variable from which to import the signal, or a valid MATLAB expression specifying the signal.
The type of event that triggers the block's execution.
The value to output until the first trigger event is received.
The number of samples, Mo, to buffer into each output frame. This value must be 1 when you specify a 3-D array in the Signal parameter.
Specifies the output after all of the specified signal samples have been generated. The block can output zeros for the duration of the simulation (Setting to zero), repeat the final data sample (Holding Final Value) or repeat the entire signal from the beginning (Cyclic Repetition).
