pathsim.utils.adaptivebuffer module

class pathsim.utils.adaptivebuffer.AdaptiveBuffer(delay)[source]

Bases: object

A class that manages an adaptive buffer for delay modeling which is primarily used in the pathsim ‘Delay’ block but might have future applications aswell.

It implements a linear interpolation for arbitrary time lookup.

Parameters:: delay (float) – time delay in seconds

buffer_t

deque that collects the time data for buffering

Type:: deque

buffer_v

deque that collects the value data for buffering

Type:: deque

add(t, value)[source]

adding a new datapoint to the buffer

Parameters:

t (float) – time to add
value (float, int, complex) – numerical value to add

interp(t)[source]

interpolate buffer at defined lookup time

Parameters:: t (float) – time for interpolation
Returns:: out – interpolated value
Return type:: float, array

get(t)[source]

lookup datapoint from buffer with delay at t_lookup = t - delay

Parameters:: t (float) – time for lookup with delay

clear()[source]: clear the buffer, reset everything
