- xp,i is the state vector whose ith component is perturbed from the operating point
value. - xo is the state vector at the operating point.
- up,i is the input vector whose ith component is perturbed from the operating point
value. - uo is the input vector at the operating point.
- x ̇xp,i is the value of x ̇ at xp,i, uo.
- x ̇up,i is the value of x ̇ at up,i, xo.
- x ̇o is the value of x ̇ at the operating point.
- yxp,i is the value of y at xp,i, uo.
- yup,i is the value of y at up,i, xo.
- yo is the value of y at the operating point.
User-Defined Blocks
All user defined blocks such as S-Function and MATLAB Function blocks, are compatible
with linearization. These blocks are linearized using numerical perturbation.
User-defined blocks do not linearize when these blocks use nondouble precision data
types.
See “Linearize Blocks with Nondouble Precision Data Type Signals” on page 2-193.
Look Up Tables
Regular look up tables are numerically perturbed. Pre-lookup tables have a
preprogrammed (exact) block-by-block linearization.
