Floating-Point and Fixed-Point Data Types
The inputs and outputs of the communications blocks support various data types. For some blocks, changing to single outputs can lead to different results when compared with double outputs for the same set of parameters. Some blocks may naturally output different data types than what they receive (e.g. digital modulators) a signal. Refer to the individual block reference pages for details.
For more information, see Floating-Point Numbers (Fixed-Point Designer) and Fixed-Point Signal Processing.
