Model Attributes

Specify and query model characteristics such as coefficients, labels, and units

Model properties are the data fields that store all information about a dynamic system model. Data stored in model properties includes model dynamics, such as transfer-function coefficients, state-space matrices, and time delays. Access these properties to extract or change data about model dynamics. You can also specify metadata about the model such as input and output names or units.

Topics

Accessing and Modifying the Model Data

This example shows how to access or edit parameter values and metadata in LTI objects.

Store and Retrieve Model Data

Extract and change model properties such as model dynamics, sample time, and channel names.

Extract Model Coefficients

Extract model coefficients such as transfer function numerator and denominator coefficients, state-space matrices, and PID gains.

Attach Metadata to Models

Specify additional model properties such as time units, input and output names, and input and output groups.

Query Model Characteristics

Query dynamic-system model characteristics such as stability, time domain, and number of inputs and outputs.

Customize Model Display

Configure how transfer functions are displayed in the MATLAB® command window.
