INTRODUCTION
 MATLAB (matrix laboratory) is developed
by MathWorks.
 Il allows matrix manipulations, plotting of functions
and data, creation of user interfaces.
 It interface with programs written in C, C++, Java,
and Fortran.
 Many toobox: Control System, Finacial, Fuzzy Logic,
Signal Processing, Statistics, Symbolic, System
Identification, …

DEFINITION OF A LINEAR SYSTEM

 Transfer function (1)
Syntax
SYS = tf(num,den, Ts)
Creates a continuous-time transfer function SYS
num: numerator
den: denominator
Ts: sample time (for discrete system)

Example
s2
G1 ( s )  3 num1=3*[1 2];den1=[1 2 4];G1=tf(num1,den1);
s 2  2s  4
z  0.6 num2=2.1*[1 -0.6];den2=[1 -0.56]; T=0.5;
G2 ( z )  2.1
z 2  0.56 z  0.4 G2=tf(num2,den2,T)
