sigmaplot - Plot singular values of frequency response and return plot handle

Syntax

Description

h = sigmaplot(sys) produces a singular value (SV) plot of the frequency response of the dynamic system sys. It also returns the plot handle h. You can use this handle to customize the plot with the getoptions and setoptions commands. Type

help sigmaoptions 

for a list of available plot options.

The frequency range and number of points are chosen automatically. See bode for details on the notion of frequency in discrete time.

sigmaplot(sys,{wmin,wmax}) draws the SV plot for frequencies ranging between wmin and wmax (in rad/TimeUnit, where TimeUnit is the time units of the input dynamic system, specified in the TimeUnit property of sys).

sigmaplot(sys,w) uses the user-supplied vector w of frequencies, in rad/TimeUnit, at which the frequency response is to be evaluated. See logspace to generate logarithmically spaced frequency vectors.

sigmaplot(sys,w,TYPE) or sigmaplot(sys,[],TYPE) draws the following modified SV plots depending on the value of TYPE:

sys should be a square system when using this syntax.

sigmaplot(AX,...) plots into the axes with handle AX.

sigmaplot(..., plotoptions) plots the singular values with the options specified in plotoptions. Type

help sigmaoptions 

for more details.

Tips

You can change the properties of your plot, for example the units. For information on the ways to change properties of your plots, see Ways to Customize Plots.

Examples

Use the plot handle to change the units to Hz.

sys = rss(5);
h = sigmaplot(sys);
% Change units to Hz. 
setoptions(h,'FreqUnits','Hz');
