Lookup Tables
Lookup table blocks such as Cosine and Sine
Use blocks from the Lookup Tables library to model nonlinearity. Lookup table blocks use arrays of data to map input values to output values, approximating mathematical functions. To approximate a function in N variables, use the n-D Lookup Table block:
To manage the lookup tables in your environment, consider using the Lookup Table Editor. Watch How to Use the Lookup Table Editor (5min 9sec).
Blocks
1-D Lookup Table | Approximate one-dimensional function |
2-D Lookup Table | Approximate two-dimensional function |
Direct Lookup Table (n-D) | Index into n-dimensional table to retrieve element, vector, or 2-D matrix |
Interpolation Using Prelookup | Use precalculated index and fraction values to accelerate approximation of N-dimensional function |
Lookup Table Dynamic | Approximate a one-dimensional function using dynamic table |
Prelookup | Compute index and fraction for Interpolation Using Prelookup block |
Sine | Implement fixed-point sine or cosine wave using lookup table approach that exploits quarter wave symmetry |
n-D Lookup Table | Approximate n-dimensional function |
Functions
