SystemsModelLinearity

SystemsModelLinearity[sys]

gives the linearity of the systems model sys.

SystemsModelLinearity[{sys,{in1,…},{out1,…},{s1,…}}]

only considers the subsystem associated with inputs ini, outputs outj, and states sk.

Details

  • SystemsModelLinearity is typically used to determine whether a NonlinearStateSpaceModel or AffineStateSpaceModel satisfies additional linearity conditions, which would allow it to be exactly converted to a more specialized form and thus making a wider range of design and analysis techniques applicable.
  • Possible systems models sys include TransferFunctionModel, StateSpaceModel, AffineStateSpaceModel, and NonlinearStateSpaceModel.
  • A state space model with state , input , state equations and output equations can be classified based on what variables in and occur linearly.
  • Possible values and the structural form required for both and are given below:
  • "Linear"linear in states and inputs,
    "Bilinear"linear in states and inputs separately,
    "StateLinear"linear only in states,
    "InputLinear"linear only in inputs,
    "Nonlinear"not linear in either states or inputs

Properties & Relations  (4)

A linear system obeys the principles of superposition and homogeneity:

Its response to the input signal :

Its response to TemplateBox[{t}, UnitStepSeq]:

The response to 3 sin(t)+5 TemplateBox[{t}, UnitStepSeq] is the same as :

Typically StateSpaceModel is used to model linear state-space models:

The model can be exactly converted to any other systems model:

Typically AffineStateSpaceModel is used for models that are bilinear or input-linear:

It can be exactly converted to NonlinearStateSpaceModel:

Conversion to other systems models is approximate:

Use NonlinearStateSpaceModel for models that are not linear:

Conversion to any other systems model is approximate:
