ControlChannel

class ControlChannel(index)

GitHub(opens in a new tab)

Bases: qiskit.pulse.channels.PulseChannel

Control channels provide supplementary control over the qubit to the drive channel. These are often associated with multi-qubit gate operations. They may not map trivially to a particular qubit index.

Channel class.

Parameters

index (int) – Index of channel.


Methods

is_parameterized

ControlChannel.is_parameterized()

Return True iff the channel is parameterized.

Return type

bool


Attributes

index

Return the index of this channel. The index is a label for a control signal line typically mapped trivially to a qubit index. For instance, DriveChannel(0) labels the signal line driving the qubit labeled with index 0.

Return type

Union[int, ParameterExpression]

name

Return the shorthand alias for this channel, which is based on its type and index.

Return type

str

parameters

Parameters which determine the channel index.

Return type

Set

prefix

Type: Optional[str]

Default value: 'u'

A shorthand string prefix for characterizing the channel type.
