gaussian_deriv(duration, amp, sigma, name=None)

Generates unnormalized gaussian derivative Waveform.

For \(A=\) amp and \(\sigma=\) sigma applies the midpoint sampling strategy to generate a discrete pulse sampled from the continuous function:

\[f(x) = A\frac{(x - \mu)}{\sigma^2}\exp\left(\left(\frac{x - \mu}{2\sigma}\right)^2 \right)\]

i.e. the derivative of the Gaussian function, with center \(\mu=\) duration/2.

Parameter

• duration (int) – Duration of pulse. Must be greater than zero.

• amp (complex) – Pulse amplitude of corresponding Gaussian at the pulse center (duration/2).

• sigma (float) – Width (standard deviation) of pulse.

• name (Optional[str]) – Name of pulse.
