Adding Delays to Linear Models

You can add time delays to linear models by specifying an input or output delay when building a model. For example, to add an input delay to the DC motor, use this code.

sys_tfdelay = tf(1.5, [1 14 40.02],'inputdelay',0.05)

The Control System Toolbox constructs the DC motor transfer function, but adds a 0.05 second delay.

Transfer function:
                      1.5
exp(-0.05*s) * ------------------
               s^2 + 14 s + 40.02

For a complete description of adding time delays to models, see Time Delays online under "Creating and Manipulating Models."
