pulpy.sim.abrm

pulpy.sim.abrm(rf, x, balanced=False)[source]

1D RF pulse simulation, with simultaneous RF + gradient rotations.

Parameters:

  • rf (array) – rf waveform input.

  • x (array) – spatial locations.

  • balanced (bool) – toggles application of rewinder.

Returns:

2-element tuple containing

  • a (array): SLR alpha parameter.

  • b (array): SLR beta parameter.
