collapse all in page

Syntax

theta = cordicasin(x)
theta = cordicasin(x, niters)

Description

theta = cordicasin(x) returns the inverse sine of x based on a CORDIC approximation.

example

theta = cordicasin(x, niters) returns the inverse sine of x performing niters iterations of the CORDIC algorithm.

Compute the inverse sine of a fixed-point fi object using a CORDIC implementation.

a = fi(-1:.1:1,1,16);
b = cordicasin(a);
plot(a, b);

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with title Inverse CORDIC Sine contains an object of type line.

Open Live Script

Find the inverse sine of a fi object using a CORDIC implementation and specify the number of iterations the CORDIC kernel should perform. Plot the CORDIC approximation of the inverse sine with varying numbers of iterations. 

a = fi(-1:.1:1,1,16);
for i = 5:5:20
    b = cordicasin(a,i);
    plot(a,b);
    hold on;
end

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object contains 4 objects of type line. These objects represent 5 iterations, 10 iterations, 15 iterations, 20 iterations.

Input Arguments

collapse all

Numeric input, specified as a scalar, vector, matrix, or multidimensional array.

Data Types: single | double | int8 | int16 | int32 | int64 | uint8 | uint16 | uint32 | uint64 | fi
Complex Number Support: Yes

The number of iterations that the CORDIC algorithm performs, specified as a positive, integer-valued scalar. If you do not specify niters, the algorithm uses a default value. For fixed-point inputs, the default value of niters is one less than the word length of the input array, theta. For double-precision inputs, the default value of niters is 52. For single-precision inputs, the default value is 23.

Data Types: single | double | int8 | int16 | int32 | int64 | uint8 | uint16 | uint32 | uint64 | fi

Output Arguments
