| Product Overview | An overview of the Control System Toolbox software. |
| Building Models | Describes how to build linear models, interconnect
models, determine model characteristics, convert between continuous-
and discrete-time models, and how to perform model order reduction
on large scale models. This chapter develops a DC motor model from
basic laws of physics. |
| Analyzing Models | Introduces the LTI Viewer, a graphical user interface
(GUI) that simplifies the task of viewing model responses. This chapter
also discusses command-line functions for viewing model responses. |
| Designing Compensators | Introduces the SISO Design Tool, a GUI that allows
you to rapidly iterate on compensator designs. You can use this tool
to adjust compensator gains and add dynamics, such as poles, zeros,
lead networks, and notch filters. This chapter also discusses command-line
functions for compensator design and includes examples of LQR and
Kalman filter design. |
| Learning More | Discusses demos, the online help system, how to customize Control System Toolbox plots,
the newsgroup comp.soft-sys.matlab, and what is available online at
http://www.mathworks.com. |
