Discrete Fourier Transform Precoding#

class DFT(fft_norm='ortho')#

Bases: SymbolPrecoder, Serializable

A precoder applying the Discrete Fourier Transform to each data stream.

Object initialization.

Parameters:

fft_norm (str, optional) – The norm applied to the discrete fourier transform. See also numpy.fft.fft for details

yaml_tag: str = 'DFT'#

YAML serialization tag.

encode(symbols)#

Encode a data stream before transmission.

This operation may modify the number of streams as well as the number of data symbols per stream.

Parameters:

symbols (StatedSymbols) – Symbols to be encoded.

Return type:

StatedSymbols

Returns: Encoded symbols.

Raises:

NotImplementedError – If an encoding operation is not supported.

decode(symbols)#

Decode a data stream before reception.

This operation may modify the number of streams as well as the number of data symbols per stream.

Parameters:

symbols (Symbols) – Symbols to be decoded.

Return type:

StatedSymbols

Returns: Decoded symbols.

Raises:

NotImplementedError – If an encoding operation is not supported.

property num_input_streams: int#

Required number of input symbol streams for encoding / number of resulting output streams after decoding.

Returns:

The number of symbol streams.

Return type:

int

property num_output_streams: int#

Required number of input symbol streams for decoding / number of resulting output streams after encoding.

Returns:

The number of symbol streams.

Return type:

int
