gr_peak_detector2_fb Class Reference
[Signal Processing Blocks]

Detect the peak of a signal

If a peak is detected, this block outputs a 1, or it outputs 0's. A separate debug output may be connected, to view the internal EWMA described below. More...

Detailed Description

Detect the peak of a signal

If a peak is detected, this block outputs a 1, or it outputs 0's. A separate debug output may be connected, to view the internal EWMA described below.

Parameters:
threshold_factor_rise The threshold factor determins when a peak is present. An EWMA average of the signal is calculated and when the value of the signal goes over threshold_factor_rise*average, we call the peak.
look_ahead The look-ahead value is used when the threshold is found to locate the peak within this range.
alpha The gain value of a single-pole moving average filter
