18 * The formula used by the ramp is the following:
22 * f(t) = -------------
26 * Where <code>a</code> and <code>b</code> are the maximum and minimum speed
27 * respectively (minimum and maximum wavelength respectively), and <code>lerp</code>
28 * is a linear interpolation with a factor:
31 * lerp(a,b,t) = a + t * (b - a) = (a * (1 - t)) + (b * t)
34 * <code>t</code> must be in the [0,1] interval. It is easy to see that the
35 * following holds true:
41 * And that the function is monotonic. So, the function effectively interpolates
42 * between the maximum and minimum speed through its domain ([0,1] -> [b,a]).
44 * The curve drawn by this function is similar to 1 / (sqrt(n)), so it is slower
45 * than a linear acceleration (which would be 1/n).
47 * The floating point version uses a slightly modified function which accepts
48 * the parameter in the domain [0, MT] (where MT is maxTime, the length of the
49 * ramp, which is a setup parameter for the ramp). This is done to reduce the
50 * number of operations per step. The formula looks like this:
54 * g(t) = ----------------------------
55 * (a * MT) + t * (b - a)
58 * It can be shown that this <code>g(t) = f(t * MT)</code>. The denominator
59 * is a linear interpolation in the range [b*MT, a*MT], as t moves in the
60 * interval [0, MT]. So the interpolation interval of the function is again
61 * [b, a]. The implementation caches the value of the numerator and parts
62 * of the denominator, so that the formula becomes:
70 * g(t) = ----------------------
74 * and <code>t</code> is exactly the parameter that ramp_evaluate() gets,
75 * that is the current time (in range [0, MT]). The operations performed
76 * for each step are just an addition, a multiplication and a division.
78 * The fixed point version of the formula instead transforms the original
79 * function as follows:
83 * f(t) = ------------------------- = --------------------
85 * b * ( - * (1 - t) + t ) - * (1 - t) + t
89 * <code>t</code> must be computed by dividing the current time (24 bit integer)
90 * by the maximum time (24 bit integer). This is done by precomputing the
91 * reciprocal of the maximum time as a 0.32 fixed point number, and multiplying
92 * it to the current time. Multiplication is performed 8-bits a time by
93 * FIX_MULT32(), so that we end up with a 0.16 fixed point number for
94 * <code>t</code> (and <code>1-t</code> is just its twos-complement negation).
95 * <code>a/b</code> is in the range [0,1] (because a is always less than b,
96 * being the minimum wavelength), so it is precomputed as a 0.16 fixed point.
97 * The final step is then computing the denominator and executing the division
98 * (32 cycles using the 1-step division instruction in the DSP).
100 * The assembly implementation is needed for efficiency, but a C version of it
101 * can be easily written, in case it is needed in the future.
