[FEATURE] - Pulse sheet simulator should take amplitude increment into account

Opened this issue · 1 comments

Describe the bug
For an experiment scaling the amplitude using real-time loops, the command table will use the increment amplitude argument.

In the interactive_psv simulation, however, the pulse will only be scaled to the value, which is supposed to be incremented instead of steadily increasing.

Here is a compiled_experiment, corresponding to a rabi, with increasing amplitude of the drive pulse.

Context

  • Do you know a workaround for the issue? If yes, please provide a short description.
  • Does the issue block your experiments?

@GlaserN we diagnosed the root cause of this issue, it is because the OutputSimulator be default does only analyze part of the sequencer code and not the full sequence, and therefore is not aware of the status of any increments.
We may adapt this in the future, but it may require a larger rework of the OutputSimulator.
