Signal
This module contains classes and functions forfiltering (pulse shaping),windowing, andup- anddownsampling.The following figure shows the different components that can be implemented using this module.

This module also containsutility functions for computing the (inverse) discrete Fourier transform (FFT/IFFT), and for empirically computing thepower spectral density (PSD) andadjacent channel leakage ratio (ACLR) of a signal.
The following code snippet shows how to filter a sequence of QAM baseband symbols using a root-raised-cosine filter with a Hann window:
# Create batch of QAM-16 sequencesbatch_size=128num_symbols=1000num_bits_per_symbol=4x=QAMSource(num_bits_per_symbol)([batch_size,num_symbols])# Create a root-raised-cosine filter with Hann windowingbeta=0.22# Roll-off factorspan_in_symbols=32# Filter span in symbolssamples_per_symbol=4# Number of samples per symbol, i.e., the oversampling factorrrcf_hann=RootRaisedCosineFilter(span_in_symbols,samples_per_symbol,beta,window="hann")# Create instance of the Upsampling layerus=Upsampling(samples_per_symbol)# Upsample the baseband xx_us=us(x)# Filter the upsampled sequencex_rrcf=rrcf_hann(x_us)
On the receiver side, one would recover the baseband symbols as follows:
# Instantiate a downsampling layerds=Downsampling(samples_per_symbol,rrcf_hann.length-1,num_symbols)# Apply the matched filterx_mf=rrcf_hann(x_rrcf)# Recover the transmitted symbol sequencex_hat=ds(x_mf)

- sionna.phy.signal.convolve(inp,ker,padding='full',axis=-1,precision=None)[source]
Filters an input
inpof lengthN by convolving it with a kernelkerof lengthKThe length of the kernel
kermust not be greater than the one of the input sequenceinp.Thedtype of the output istf.float only if both
inpandkeraretf.float. It istf.complex otherwise.inpandkermust have the same precision.Three padding modes are available:
“full” (default): Returns the convolution at each point of overlap between
kerandinp.The length of the output isN + K - 1. Zero-padding of the inputinpis performed tocompute the convolution at the border points.“same”: Returns an output of the same length as the input
inp. The convolution is computed suchthat the coefficients of the inputinpare centered on the coefficient of the kernelkerwith index(K-1)/2for kernels of odd length, andK/2-1for kernels of even length.Zero-padding of the input signal is performed to compute the convolution at the border points.“valid”: Returns the convolution only at points where
inpandkercompletely overlap.The length of the output isN - K + 1.
- Input:
