Uncertainty Analysis

Compute parameter variability, plot confidence bounds

When you estimate the model parameters from data, you obtain their nominal values that are accurate within a confidence region. The size of this region is determined by the values of the parameter uncertainties computed during estimation. The magnitude of the uncertainties provide a measure of the reliability of the model. You can compute and visualize the effect of parameter uncertainties on the model response in time and frequency domains.

Examples and How To

Plot Impulse and Step Response Using the System Identification App

To create a transient analysis plot in the System Identification app, select the Transient resp check box in the Model Views area.

Plot Bode Plots Using the System Identification App

To create a frequency-response plot for linear models in the System Identification app, select the Frequency resp check box in the Model Views area.

Plot the Noise Spectrum Using the System Identification App
