Purpose 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:
