ss2tf

Syntax

[NUM, DEN] = ss2tf(A, B, C, D)

[NUM, DEN] = ss2tf(A, B, C, D, K)

Inputs

A

The state matrix (n x n), where n is the number of states.

B

The input matrix (n x p), where p is the number of inputs.

C

The output matrix (q x n), where q is the number of outputs.

D

The direct transmission matrix (q x p).

K (optional)

Scalar to extract results for input K. Default: 1.

Outputs

NUM

The numerator polynomial coefficient vector(s).

DEN

The denominator polynomial coefficient vector.

Comments

[NUM, DEN] = ss2tf(A, B, C, D, K) returns the transfer function from the K-th input.

Vector DEN contains the denominator coefficients in descending powers of s.

The numerator coefficients are returned in NUM with as many rows as there are outputs.

Transfer function coefficients are stored in descending powers of s or z.

ss2tf does not support multiple input systems. For MIMO support, see ss2tfc.
