Continuous/Discrete Conversions
1-13
Continuous/Discrete Conversions
The commands c2d, d2c,andd2d perform continuous to discrete, discrete to
continuous, and discrete to discrete (resampling) conversions, respectively.
sysd = c2d(sysc,Ts) % discretization w/ sample period Ts
sysc = d2c(sysd) % equivalent continuous-time model
sysd1= d2d(sysd,Ts) % resampling at the period Ts
See “Continuous/Discrete Conversions of LTI Models” on page 3-20 for more
information.
Various discretization/interpolation methods are available, including
zero-order hold (default), first-order hold, Tustin approximation with or
without p rewarping, and matched zero-pole. For example,
sysd = c2d(sysc,Ts,'foh')% uses first-order hold
sysc = d2c(sysd,'tustin')% uses Tustin approx.
