Coupling

Abstract base class from which all mutual coupling implementations are expected to inherit.

class Coupling

Bases: Serializable

Base class for mutual coupling model implementations.

receive(signal, state)

Apply the mutual coupling model during signal reception.

Parameters:

• signal (Signal) – The signal to be received.

• state (SimulatedDeviceState) – The current state of the simulated device.

Return type:

Signal

Returns:

The signal resulting from coupling modeling.

Raises:

ValueError – If the number of signal streams does not match the number of receive antennas.

transmit(signal, state)

Apply the mutual coupling model during signal transmission.

Parameters:

• signal (Signal) – The signal to be transmitted.

• state (SimulatedDeviceState) – The current state of the simulated device.

Return type:

Signal

Returns: The signal resulting from coupling modeling.

Raises:

ValueError – If the number of signal streams does not match the number of transmitting antennas.
