rational

Perform rational fitting to complex frequency-dependent data

expand all in page

Description

Use the rational object and an interpolative algorithm to create a rational fit to frequency-dependent data.

The complex frequencies are given by the equation:

F(s) = residues(1)s-poles(1)+residues(2)s-poles(2)+...+residues(n)s-poles(n)+directtermwhere, s=j2πfreq

Creation

Syntax

fit = rational(freq,data)
fit = rational(s)
fit = rational(___,tol)
[fit,error] = rational(___)
fit = rational(...,Name,Value)

Description

fit = rational(freq,data) returns a rational object with complex frequencies using the given frequency vector and network parameter data.

example

fit = rational(s) returns a rational object for N-port S-parameters.

fit = rational(___,tol) returns a rational object fit that satisfies a relative error tolerance.

[fit,error] = rational(___) also returns the error of the fit.

fit = rational(...,Name,Value) sets properties using one or more name-value pairs. For example, fit = rational(s,'Tolerance',-34)sets the relative error tolerance in decibels for the fit.

Input Arguments

expand all

Nonnegative frequencies, specified as a vector of nonnegative frequencies in Hz.

Data Types: double

Network parameter data, specified as a vector, a 2-D array or a 3-D array. The length of the data values must equal the length of the frequency values.

Relative error tolerance, specified as a scalar less than or equal to zero. tol value sets the input for the 'Tolerance' property.

Data Types: double

N-port S-parameters, specified as an N-by-N matrix of elements of S sharing identical poles.

Properties

expand all

Relative error tolerance, specified as a scalar less than or equal to zero.

Data Types: double

Behavior of fit for large S-parameters, specified as true or false. When true, the direct term in the fit is set to zero so that the rational fit F(S) tends to zero as S approaches infinity. When false, a nonzero direct term is allowed.

Data Types: logical

Maximum number of poles, specified as a scalar nonnegative integer.

Data Types: double

Display options for the fitting algorithm of the rational object, specified as one of the following:

  • 'off' - No display

  • 'on' - Printed information

  • 'plot' - Plots of the interpolation progress

  • 'both' - -Both printed information and plots.

Data Types: char
