sys = append(sys1,sys2)% block diagonal appending
In I/O terms, horizontal and vertical concatenation have the following
block-diagram interpretations (with and denoting the transfer
matrices of
sys1 and sys2).
You can use concatenation as an easy way to create MIMO transfer functions
or zero-pole-gain models. For example,
H = [ tf(1,[1 0]) 1 ; 0 tf([1 –1],[1 1]) ]
