Submatrix block with dynamical parameter

Hi,

A frame based column vector shall be split and changed to a submatrix with the Submatrix block. Now the problem is, the parameter “Starting row offset” must be set to the first element of this vector, that is, dynamically.

For example, if the original vector is [1;2;3;4;5], then the parameter “Starting row offset” shall be 1. Is it possible with this Submatrix block? Or, are there other ways to solve this problem?

Thanks Senmeis

This blog post on How Do I Change a Block Parameter Based on the Output of Another Block? explains why can't achieve what you need with a Submatrix block. Perhaps you should use the (Embedded) MATLAB Function block and write your own MATLAB code that does what you need. Note that if the starting row offset is dynamic, your output will be a variable-size signal, and you need to configure the output of the MATLAB Function block accordingly.
