Vector Shift

Functions
void	arm_shift_q15 (const q15_t *pSrc, int8_t shiftBits, q15_t *pDst, uint32_t blockSize)
	Shifts the elements of a Q15 vector a specified number of bits.
void	arm_shift_q31 (const q31_t *pSrc, int8_t shiftBits, q31_t *pDst, uint32_t blockSize)
	Shifts the elements of a Q31 vector a specified number of bits.
void	arm_shift_q7 (const q7_t *pSrc, int8_t shiftBits, q7_t *pDst, uint32_t blockSize)
	Shifts the elements of a Q7 vector a specified number of bits.

Description

Shifts the elements of a fixed-point vector by a specified number of bits. There are separate functions for Q7, Q15, and Q31 data types. The underlying algorithm used is:

    pDst[n] = pSrc[n] << shift,   0 <= n < blockSize.

If shift is positive then the elements of the vector are shifted to the left. If shift is negative then the elements of the vector are shifted to the right.

The functions support in-place computation allowing the source and destination pointers to reference the same memory buffer.

Function Documentation

arm_shift_q15()

void arm_shift_q15	(	const q15_t *	pSrc,
		int8_t	shiftBits,
		q15_t *	pDst,
		uint32_t	blockSize
	)

Shifts the elements of a Q15 vector a specified number of bits.

Parameters

[in]	pSrc	points to the input vector
[in]	shiftBits	number of bits to shift. A positive value shifts left; a negative value shifts right.
[out]	pDst	points to the output vector
[in]	blockSize	number of samples in each vector

Scaling and Overflow Behavior

The function uses saturating arithmetic. Results outside of the allowable Q15 range [0x8000 0x7FFF] are saturated.

arm_shift_q31()

void arm_shift_q31	(	const q31_t *	pSrc,
		int8_t	shiftBits,
		q31_t *	pDst,
		uint32_t	blockSize
	)

Shifts the elements of a Q31 vector a specified number of bits.

Parameters

[in]	pSrc	points to the input vector
[in]	shiftBits	number of bits to shift. A positive value shifts left; a negative value shifts right.
[out]	pDst	points to the output vector
[in]	blockSize	number of samples in the vector

Scaling and Overflow Behavior

The function uses saturating arithmetic. Results outside of the allowable Q31 range [0x80000000 0x7FFFFFFF] are saturated.

arm_shift_q7()

void arm_shift_q7	(	const q7_t *	pSrc,
		int8_t	shiftBits,
		q7_t *	pDst,
		uint32_t	blockSize
	)

Shifts the elements of a Q7 vector a specified number of bits.

Parameters

[in]	pSrc	points to the input vector
[in]	shiftBits	number of bits to shift. A positive value shifts left; a negative value shifts right.
[out]	pDst	points to the output vector
[in]	blockSize	number of samples in each vector

onditions for optimum performance

Input and output buffers should be aligned by 32-bit

Scaling and Overflow Behavior

The function uses saturating arithmetic. Results outside of the allowable Q7 range [0x80 0x7F] are saturated.
