pts2waveform¶

This function interpolates a set of points (times, amplitudes) to generate a waveform with a specified gradient raster time. It takes time points and corresponding amplitude values as input, and outputs a waveform sampled at the specified raster time. The interpolation ensures a smooth waveform consistent with the gradient hardware's resolution.

Syntax¶

function waveform = pts2waveform(times, amplitudes, gradRasterTime)

Calling Pattern¶

mr.pts2waveform(...)

Parameters¶

Required Parameters¶

Name	Type	Description	Example	Units
`times`	double	A vector of time points at which the amplitudes are defined.	`[0, 0.001, 0.002]`	seconds
`amplitudes`	double	A vector of amplitude values corresponding to the time points in 'times'.	`[0, 100, 0]`	Hz/m
`gradRasterTime`	double	The time resolution of the gradient waveform. The output waveform will be sampled at this interval.	`0.0001`	seconds

Returns¶

Output	Type	Description
`waveform`	double	A vector representing the interpolated gradient waveform, sampled at the specified 'gradRasterTime'.

Examples¶

waveform = mr.pts2waveform([0, 0.001, 0.002], [0, 100, 0], 0.0001);
