For linear models, you can identify both time- and frequency-domain data with single or multiple inputs and outputs. Time-domain data can be either real or complex.
For nonlinear models, this toolbox supports only time-domain data.
Time-domain data is one or more input variables u(t) and one or more output variables y(t), sampled as a function of time.
Frequency-domain data is the Fourier transform of the input and output time-domain signals.
Frequency-response data, also called frequency-function data, represents complex frequency-response values for a linear system characterized by its transfer function G. You can measure frequency-response data values directly using a spectrum analyzer, for example.
Time-series data, which contains one or more outputs y(t) and no measured input, can be time-domain or frequency-domain data.
Note If your data is complex valued, see Manipulating Complex-Valued Data for information about supported operations for complex data. |
