Description

The Real Burst Q-less QR Decomposition block uses QR decomposition to compute the economy size upper-triangular R factor of the QR decomposition A = QR, where A is a real-valued matrix, without computing Q. The solution to A'Ax = B is x = R\R'\b.

When Regularization parameter is nonzero, the Real Burst Q-less QR Decomposition block computes the upper-triangular factor R of the economy size QR decomposition of $$\left[\begin{array}{c}\lambda I_n\\ A\end{array}\right]$$ where λ is the regularization parameter.

Ports

Input

A(i,:) — Rows of real matrix A

vector

Rows of real matrix A, specified as a vector. A is an m-by-n matrix where m ≥ 2 and n ≥ 2. If A is a fixed-point data type, A must be signed and use binary-point scaling. Slope-bias representation is not supported for fixed-point data types.

Data Types: single | double | fixed point

validIn — Whether inputs are valid

Boolean scalar

Whether inputs are valid, specified as a Boolean scalar. This control signal indicates when the data from the A(i,:) input port is valid. When this value is 1 (true) and the value of ready is 1 (true), the block captures the values at the A(i,:) input port. When this value is 0 (false), the block ignores the input samples.

After sending a true validIn signal, there may be some delay before ready is set to false. To ensure all data is processed, you must wait until ready is set to false before sending another true validIn signal.

Data Types: Boolean

restart — Whether to clear internal states

Boolean scalar

Whether to clear internal states, specified as a Boolean scalar. When this value is 1 (true), the block stops the current calculation and clears all internal states. When this value is 0 (false) and the value at validIn is 1 (true), the block begins a new subframe.

Data Types: Boolean

Output

R(i,:) — Rows of upper-triangular matrix R

scalar | vector

Rows of the economy size QR decomposition matrix R, returned as a scalar or vector. R is an upper triangular matrix. The output at R(i,:) has the same data type as the input at A(i,:).

Data Types: single | double | fixed point

validOut — Whether output data is valid

Boolean scalar

Whether the output data is valid, specified as a Boolean scalar. This control signal indicates when the data at output port R(i,:) is valid. When this value is 1 (true), the block has successfully computed the matrix R. When this value is 0 (false), the output data is not valid.

Data Types: Boolean

ready — Whether block is ready

Boolean scalar

Whether the block is ready, returned as a Boolean scalar. This control signal indicates when the block is ready for new input data. When this value is 1 (true) and validIn is 1 (true), the block accepts input data in the next time step. When this value is 0 (false), the block ignores input data in the next time step.

After sending a true validIn signal, there may be some delay before ready is set to false. To ensure all data is processed, you must wait until ready is set to false before sending another true validIn signal.

Data Types: Boolean

Parameters

Number of rows in matrix A — Number of rows in matrix A

4 (default) | positive integer-valued scalar

Number of rows in input matrix A, specified as a positive integer-valued scalar.

Programmatic Use

Block Parameter: m

Type: character vector

Values: positive integer-valued scalar

Default: 4

Number of columns in matrix A — Number of columns in matrix A

4 (default) | positive integer-valued scalar

Number of columns in input matrix A, specified as a positive integer-valued scalar.

Programmatic Use

Block Parameter: n

Type: character vector

Values: positive integer-valued scalar

Default: 4

Regularization parameter — Regularization parameter

0 (default) | real nonnegative scalar

Regularization parameter, specified as a nonnegative scalar. Small, positive values of the regularization parameter can improve the conditioning of the problem and reduce the variance of the estimates. While biased, the reduced variance of the estimate often results in a smaller mean squared error when compared to least-squares estimates.

Programmatic Use

Block Parameter: regularizationParameter

Type: character vector

Values: real nonnegative scalar

Default: 0
