State Space

Purpose

Implement a state-space model.

Library

Control / Linear

Description

pict

The State Space block models a state space system of the form
x = Ax + Bu,y = Cx + Du  , where x   is the state vector, u   is the input vector, and y   is the output vector.

Parameters

A,B,C,D
The coefficient matrices for the state space system. The dimensions for the coefficient matrices must conform to the dimensions shown in the diagram below:

where n   is the number of states, m   is the width of the input signal and p   is the width of the output signal.

Initial condition
A vector of initial values for the state vector, x  .

Probe Signals

Input
The input vector, u  .
Output
The output vector, y  .
