Placing the loop opening at the same location as the input or output signal would also
remove the effect of the inner loop from the linearization result.
You can specify analysis points directly in your Simulink model, in the Linear Analysis
Tool, or at the command line. For more information, about the different types of analysis
points and how to define them, see “Specify Portion of Model to Linearize” on page 2-13.
Compute Open-Loop Response Using Linear Analysis Tool
This example shows how to compute a linear model of the combined controller-plant
system without the effects of the feedback signal. You can analyze the resulting linear
model using, for example, a Bode plot.
Open Simulink model.
sys = 'watertank';
