optic.dsp.core.quantizer

quantizer(x, nBits=16, maxV=1, minV=-1)

Quantize the input signal using a uniform quantizer with the specified precision.

Parameters:

• x (np.array) – The input signal to be quantized.

• nBits (int) – Number of bits used for quantization. The quantizer will have 2^nBits levels.

• maxV (float, optional) – Maximum value for the quantizer’s full-scale range (default is 1).

• minV (float, optional) – Minimum value for the quantizer’s full-scale range (default is -1).

Returns:

The quantized output signal with the same shape as ‘x’, quantized using ‘nBits’ levels.

Return type:

np.array
