Use System Objects

Simulate systems using predefined System objects in system toolboxes

System objects enable you to model dynamic systems and process streamed data. These objects are available if you have one or more system toolboxes, such as DSP System Toolbox™, Communications Toolbox™, or Computer Vision Toolbox™. For an introduction to System objects, see What Are System Objects?
