Detect Decrease

Detect decrease in signal value

  • Detect Decrease block

Libraries:
Simulink / Logic and Bit Operations
HDL Coder / Logic and Bit Operations

Description

The Detect Decrease block determines if an input is strictly less than its previous value.

This block supports only discrete sample times.

Ports

Input

expand all

Input signal, specified as a scalar, vector, or matrix.

Data Types: single | double | int8 | int16 | int32 | int64 | uint8 | uint16 | uint32 | uint64 | Boolean | fixed point | enumerated

Output

expand all

Output signal, true (equal to 1) when the input signal is less than its previous value; false (equal to 0) when the input signal is greater than or equal to its previous value.

Data Types: single | double | int8 | int16 | int32 | int64 | uint8 | uint16 | uint32 | uint64 | Boolean | fixed point | enumerated

Parameters

expand all

Set the initial condition for the previous input U/z.

Programmatic Use

Block Parameter: vinit
Type: character vector
Values: scalar | vector
Default: '0'

Specify whether the block performs sample- or frame-based processing:

  • Columns as channels (frame based) — Treat each column of the input as a separate channel (frame-based processing).

    Note

    Frame-based processing requires a DSP System Toolbox™ license.

    For more information, see Sample- and Frame-Based Concepts (DSP System Toolbox).

  • Elements as channels (sample based) — Treat each element of the input as a separate channel (sample-based processing).

Use Input processing to specify whether the block performs sample- or frame-based processing. For more information about these two processing modes, see Sample- and Frame-Based Concepts (DSP System Toolbox).

Programmatic Use

Block Parameter: InputProcessing
Type: character vector
Values: 'Columns as channels (frame based)' | 'Elements as channels (sample based)'
Default: 'Elements as channels (sample based)'

Set the output data type to boolean or uint8.

Programmatic Use

Block Parameter: OutDataTypeStr
Type: character vector
Values: 'boolean' | 'uint8'
Default: 'boolean'
