X to the Power Y

 

Description

This component performs mathematical exponentiation:  The base x being the input signal and the exponent y a user-defined input parameter.  The output signal is x to the exponent y.

Input Parameters

ConfigurationConfiguration

 

 Name for Identification

 

Text

 

Optional text parameter for identification of the component.

         

 Power Y

 

REAL

Literal

The exponent to base x (input signal).

 

 

 

 

 

Dimension

 

INTEGER

Literal

Enter the dimension of the input signal.  The default dimension is 1 (i.e. a scalar).

 

The output signal will automatically be given the same dimension as the input, where each output array element is a function of the corresponding input array element

 

 

 

 

 

When X is Negative, Output

 

Choice

 

Select 0.0,  |x|**y or -|x|**y.  Choose the preferred output in the event that the input signal x goes negative.
