Questions tagged [transfer-function]

A transfer function is a mathematical description of a system or part of a system. It relates the output of the system to the input. The system described by a transfer function is always linear and time invariant.

A transfer function is a mathematical description of a system or part of a system. It relates the output of the system to the input. The system described by a transfer function is always linear and time invariant.

Transfer functions are appropriate for single input single output systems; while several can be used to model a multiple input multiple output system it is usually more appropriate to use a state space representation in that case.

Common uses of transfer functions are;

  • Single-input single-output filters
  • Modelling systems for control theory

implementation of generic transfer function using Matlab

I would like to know can anyone tell me how to implement transfer function a1s+a2/(b1s+b2) using Matlab meaning with for loop in the discrete form not using tf([a1 a2],[b1 b2]). For example if I want to implement a1/s I know I would do something…

How can I get the Resonant Frequencies (Bode plot)? (Response of 2-DOF System)

I want to study the response of the system. I want to find the resonant frequency of the sprung mass (m1) and the resonant frequency of the unsprung mass (m2). Because I am not sure if I have understood the meaning of resonant. Let's say that we…

how to calculate gain of a controller for desired bandwidth?

I have been designing a controller for a motion system. The controller contains a gain, Proportional integrator(PI) and a lead filter in series. I have tuned the gain of the controller manually to obtain a desired bandwidth(cross over frequency).…

Transfer Function Confidence interval estimation

I've obtained a Transfer Function model to predict the value of $y_t$ which is: $$ y_t - \mu = \frac{0.0034 + 0.0024B^9}{1- 0.9B}x_{t-9} + \frac{1}{1+0.6B} a_t $$ I obtained this model with SAS, and each parameter is estimated as a T-Student…

design a Matlab filter from measured transfer function

I'm currently processing some data I acquired. The problem is: there's an element between the value I want to measure and my sensor (to be clear: there's a pipe between my microphone and the sound I measure). This pipe filters my signal X, through a…

Transfer function of WaveShaperNode

I'm having trouble understanding how the transfer function for a WaveShaperNode in the Web Audio API works. As I understand, a transfer function is a waveshaper which takes in a signal input x and produces a new signal y. So, y = f(x) I understand…

Reset state of continuous blocks (e.g., transfer function) in Simulink

How I can reset the state of a transfer function block in Simulink (i.e., reset back to the initial conditions)? For example, in an electrical network, this would correspond to reset capacitors/inductors to zero (or an initial state), for example…
