Generates a Gaussian-distributed, pseudorandom pattern whose statistical profile is (mu, sigma) = (0, s), where s is standard deviation.

This VI is similar to the Gaussian White Noise VI.

Note By default, reentrant execution is enabled in all Point By Point VIs.

Inputs/Outputs

  • cbool.png initialize —

    initialize, when TRUE, initializes the internal state of the VI.

  • cdbl.png standard deviation —

    standard deviation is the standard deviation of the Gaussian probability density function. The default is 1.0.

  • ci32.png seed —

    seed, when greater than 0, causes reseeding of the noise sample generator. The default is –1.

    LabVIEW maintains the internal seed state independently for each instance of this VI. For a specific instance of this VI, if seed is less than or equal to 0, LabVIEW does not reseed the noise generator, and the noise generator resumes producing noise samples as a continuation of the previous noise sequence.

  • idbl.png Gaussian white noise —

    Gaussian white noise is the set of points that contains Gaussian white noise.

    • The statistical profile of the Gaussian-distributed, pseudorandom pattern is (µ,standard deviation) = (0,s), where s is the absolute value of the specified standard deviation.
