Library
Activate/Dynamical
Description
The ContStateSpace block realizes a continuous-time linear state-space system.
The system is defined by the A,B,C,D matrices and the initial state vector x0.
The system is xdot = Ax + bu and y = Cx + du where x (size n) is the vector of the state variables, u is the vector of inputs (size m) and y (size r) is the vector of outputs.
Parameters
| Name | Label | Description | Data Type | Valid Values |

A | A matrix | real nxn matrix where n is the number of states, default value: 1. | Matrix | |
B | B matrix | real nxm matrix where n is the number of states and m is the number of inputs, default value: 1. B=[ ] if block has no input. | Matrix | |
