| Block |
Description
The EngeeComms.ConvolutionalInterleaver system object rearranges the characters in the input sequence using a set of shift registers, each with its own delay value.
For more information on delays, see More about delayed convolutional interleaving and de-interleaving (recovery).
To rearrange characters using a set of shift registers with specified delays, follow the steps below:
-
Create an EngeeComms.ConvolutionalInterleaver object and set its properties.
-
Call the object with arguments as if it were a function.

Syntax
Creation
-
ConvInterleaver = EngeeComms.ConvolutionalInterleaver()creates a system object to permute characters with by default properties.Example:
ConvInterleaver = EngeeComms.ConvolutionalInterleaver() -
ConvInterleaver = EngeeComms.ConvolutionalInterleaver(Name=Value)creates a system object to permute characters with each specified property Name (name) set to the specified Value (value). You can specify additional arguments as a name-value pair in any order (Name1=Value1,…,NameN=ValueN).Example:
# переставляет символы во входной последовательности с помощью набора из 10 сдвиговых регистров ConvInterleaver = EngeeComms.ConvolutionalInterleaver(NumRegisters=10)

Properties
#
RegisterLengthStep —
register length step
Scalar / array of real numbers
Details
The number of characters by which the length of each successive shift register differs. Zero characters are stored in the last register.
| Data types |
|
#
NumRegisters —
number of shift registers
Scalar / array of real numbers
Details
The number of shift registers the block uses internally.
| Data types |
|
#
InitialConditions —
initial values of shift registers
Scalar / array of real and/or complex numbers
Details
Sets the values that fill each shift register at the start of the simulation (except for the first shift register, which has zero delay).
-
If the InitialConditions property is a scalar, its value fills all shift registers except the first one.
-
If the InitialConditions property is a column vector whose length is equal to the NumRegisters parameters, the th element of this vector fills the entire th shift register.
The value of the first element of the InitialConditions parameters is not used because the first shift register has zero delay.

Details
The total delay of convolutional interleaving-displacement methods is equal to
,
where
-
- number of registers, is equal to the value of the NumRegisters property;
-
- register length step is equal to the value of the RegisterLengthStep property.
The diagram below shows the structure of a generic interleaver consisting of a set of shift registers, each with a specified delay, denoted as , and a switch for switching input and output symbols across registers. The -th shift register contains symbols, where and has a delay value equal to . With each new input character, the switch switches to a new register and inputs a new character while deleting the oldest character in that register. When the switch reaches -th register, the switch returns to the first register on the next new input.
