Determine if model has internal delays

Syntax

B = hasInternalDelay(sys)
B = hasInternalDelay(sys,'elem')

Description

example

B = hasInternalDelay(sys) returns 1 (true) if the model sys has internal delays, and 0 (false) otherwise. If sys is a model array, then B is true if least one model in sys has delays.

B = hasInternalDelay(sys,'elem') checks each model in the model array sys and returns a logical array of the same size as sys. The logical array indicates which models in sys have internal delays.

Open Live Script

Build a dynamic system model of the following closed-loop system.

s = tf('s');
G = exp(-2.4*s)/(s-5);
C = pid(5,0.1);
sys = feedback(G*C,1);

Check the model for internal delays. 

B = hasInternalDelay(sys)
B = logical
   1

The model, sys, has an internal delay because of the transport delay in the plant G. Therefore, hasInternalDelay returns 1.

Input Arguments

collapse all

Model or array to check for internal delays, specified as a dynamic system model or array of dynamic system models.

Output Arguments

collapse all

Flag indicating presence of internal delays in input model or array, returned as a logical value or logical array.
