SubblockStatisticsFract32

Overview

Computes statistics at several points in a block of samples

Discussion

This module calculates statistics of the input signal at several points for each block. Output blocks have samples, where each output sample is the statistics value for a subblock The input pin can have an arbitrary number of interleaved channels and the calculation occurs over all channels. The output pin has a single channel and a blockSize equal to floor(inputBlocksize / subblockSize)

For each subblock, one of the following values is calculated: maximum, minimum, maximum absolute value, mean, RMS, standard deviation, variance, or average energy. The parameter statisticsType specifies which statistic is computed: 0=maximum, 1=minimum, 2=maximum absolute value, 3=mean, 4=RMS, 5=standard deviation, 6=variance, 7=average energy, 8=sum, 9=sum of squares. The module is stateless and the statistic is recomputed for each block.

Matlab Usage

File Name: subblock_statistics_fract32_module.m 
 M = subblock_statistics_fract32_module(NAME, SUBSIZE) 
 This module calculates statistics of the input signal, outputting one 
 sample per SUBSIZE input samples.  The statisticsType parameter controls 
 what function is computed, e.g., min or max. 

 Arguments: 
    NAME - name of the module. 
    SUBSIZE - The number of samples per subblock to run statistics on
