Description

The PS Vector Norm block computes the Euclidean norm of a vector or matrix input physical signal:

$$y=sqrt\left(dot(u,u)\right)$$

where:

• y is the physical signal at the output port O.

• u is the physical signal at the input port I.

If the input signal is a matrix, then the block computes the column-wise vector norm.

Ports

Input

I — Input physical signal, untyped

physical signal

Input physical signal specified as a row or column vector or a matrix.

The port name is not visible in the block icon, but you can see this name in the underlying source file by clicking the Source code link in the Description tab of the block dialog box.

Output

O — Output physical signal, untyped

physical signal

Output physical signal. If the input signal is a vector, then the output signal is a scalar. If the input signal is a matrix, then the output signal is a vector or matrix representing the column-wise vector norm of the input matrix.

The port name is not visible in the block icon, but you can see this name in the underlying source file by clicking the Source code link in the Description tab of the block dialog box.
