SystemsModelOrder

SystemsModelOrder[sys]

gives the order of the state-space model sys.

Details

  • The system sys can be a standard or descriptor StateSpaceModel, an AffineStateSpaceModel, or a NonlinearStateSpaceModel, all with no delays.
  • The order of a standard continuous-time systems model is the number of integrators in the model and for standard discrete-time systems, the number of integer delays in the model.
  • For a descriptor StateSpaceModel, the order is taken to be the dimension of the slow subsystem.

Basic Examples  (2)

The order of a state-space model:

The order of a descriptor state-space model:

It can be computed as the exponent of the polynomial Det[s e-a]:

Scope  (6)

A standard state-space model:

A nonsingular descriptor state-space model:

A singular descriptor state-space model:

A discrete-time system with integer time delay:

Applications  (2)

Use SystemsModelOrder and ControllableDecomposition to test for controllability:

Test for observability:

Properties & Relations  (3)

The order of a singular state-space model depends on the descriptor matrix:

The order is equivalent to the exponent of the polynomial Det[s e-a]:

It also equals the size of the slow system found with KroneckerModelDecomposition:

The slow system size is shown by the number of ones on the descriptor matrix diagonal:

The order of a discrete-time time-delay system is the total number of delays in the system:

The order of a system with no zero dynamics is the total of the vector relative orders:

Use SystemsModelVectorRelativeOrders to get the relative orders:

Possible Issues  (1)

Discrete-time systems with fractional delays are not supported:
