ord2 (Control System Toolbox)

ord2	Examples See Also

Generate continuous second-order systems

Syntax

[A,B,C,D] = ord2(wn,z)
[num,den] = ord2(wn,z)

Description

[A,B,C,D] = ord2(wn,z)

generates the state-space description (A,B,C,D) of the second-order system

given the natural frequency wn (

) and damping factor z (

). Use ss to turn this description into a state-space object.

[num,den] = ord2(wn,z)

returns the numerator and denominator of the second-order transfer function. Use tf to form the corresponding transfer function object.

Example

To generate an LTI model of the second-order transfer function with damping factor

and natural frequency

, type

[num,den] = ord2(2.4,0.4)
num =
     1
den =
    1.0000    1.9200    5.7600
sys = tf(num,den)
Transfer function:
