Symbol Precoder¶
- class SymbolPrecoder[source]¶
-
Abstract base class for signal processing algorithms operating on complex data symbols streams.
A symbol precoder represents one coding step of a full symbol precoding configuration. It features the encoding and decoding routines, meant to encode and decode multidimensional symbol streams during transmission and reception, respectively.
- abstract decode(symbols)[source]¶
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:
Returns: Decoded symbols.
- Raises:
NotImplementedError – If a decoding operation is not supported.
- abstract encode(symbols)[source]¶
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:
Returns: Encoded symbols.
- Raises:
NotImplementedError – If an encoding operation is not supported.
