Overview

Returns Argmax_i mag(x[i]). Finds and returns the index which contains the maximum magnitude for complex points in the given vector.

Dispatcher Prototype

void volk_32fc_index_max_32u(uint32_t* target, lv_32fc_t* src0, uint32_t
num_points) 

Inputs

• src0: The complex input vector.
• num_points: The number of samples.

Outputs

• target: The index of the point with maximum magnitude.

Example Calculate the index of the maximum value of for points around the unit circle.
