RelativeBarrier

class qiskit.pulse.instructions.RelativeBarrier(*channels, name=None)

GitHub

Bases: Directive

Pulse RelativeBarrier directive.

Create a relative barrier directive.

The barrier directive blocks instructions within the same schedule as the barrier on channels contained within this barrier from moving through the barrier in time.

Deprecated since version 1.3

The class qiskit.pulse.instructions.directives.RelativeBarrier is deprecated as of Qiskit 1.3. It will be removed in Qiskit 2.0. The entire Qiskit Pulse package is being deprecated and will be moved to the Qiskit Dynamics repository: https://github.com/qiskit-community/qiskit-dynamics

Parameters

  • channels (chans.Channel) – The channel that the barrier applies to.
  • name (str | None) – Name of the directive for display purposes.

Attributes

channels

Returns the channels that this schedule uses.

duration

Duration of this instruction.

id

Unique identifier for this instruction.

instructions

Iterable for getting instructions from Schedule tree.

name

Name of this instruction.

operands

Return instruction operands.

parameters

Parameters which determine the instruction behavior.

start_time

Relative begin time of this instruction.

stop_time

Relative end time of this instruction.


Methods

append

append(schedule, name=None)

GitHub

Return a new Schedule with schedule inserted at the maximum time over all channels shared between self and schedule.

Parameters

  • schedule (Union['Schedule', 'Instruction']) – Schedule or instruction to be appended
  • name (str | None) – Name of the new schedule. Defaults to name of self

Returns

A new schedule with schedule a this instruction at t=0.
