Choose a Control Design Approach

Simulink Control Designlets you design and tune many types of control systems in

Simulink. There are are also deployable PID autotuning tools that let you tune your

controller in real time against a physical plant.

Design in Simulink

Simulink Control Design provides several approaches to tuning Simulink blocks, such as

Transfer Fcn and PID Controller blocks. Use the following table to determine which

approach best supports what you want to do.
