larray.unwrap

larray.unwrap(*args, **kwargs)

Unwrap by taking the complement of large deltas with respect to the period.

larray specific variant of numpy.unwrap.

Documentation from numpy:

This unwraps a signal p by changing elements which have an absolute difference from their predecessor of more than max(discont, period/2) to their period-complementary values.

For the default case where period is \(2\pi\) and discont is \(\pi\), this unwraps a radian phase p such that adjacent differences are never greater than \(\pi\) by adding \(2k\pi\) for some integer \(k\).

Parameters
parray_like

Input array.

discontfloat, optional

Maximum discontinuity between values, default is period/2. Values below period/2 are treated as if they were period/2. To have an effect different from the default, discont should be larger than period/2.

axisint, optional

Axis along which unwrap will operate, default is the last axis.

periodfloat, optional

Size of the range over which the input wraps. By default, it is 2 pi.

New in version 1.21.0.

Returns
outndarray

Output array.

Notes

If the discontinuity in p is smaller than period/2, but larger than discont, no unwrapping is done because taking the complement would only make the discontinuity larger.

>>> phase[3:] += np.pi
