Bases: NonlinearIOSystem
, LTI
State space representation for LTI input/output systems.
The StateSpace class is used to represent state-space realizations of linear time-invariant (LTI) systems:
where is the input, is the output, and is the state. State space systems are usually created with the ss
factory function.
System matrices of the appropriate dimensions.
System timebase. 0 (default) indicates continuous time, True indicates discrete time with unspecified sampling time, positive number is discrete time with specified sampling time, None indicates unspecified timebase (either continuous or discrete time).
Number of input, output and state variables.
shape
tuple
2-tuple of I/O system dimension, (noutputs, ninputs).
Names for the input, output, and state variables.
System name.
Notes
The main data members in the StateSpace
class are the A, B, C, and D matrices. The class also keeps track of the number of states (i.e., the size of A).
A discrete-time system is created by specifying a nonzero ‘timebase’, dt when the system is constructed:
dt
= 0: continuous-time system (default)
dt
= True: discrete time with unspecified sampling period
dt
= None: no timebase specified
Systems must have compatible timebases in order to be combined. A discrete-time system with unspecified sampling time (dt
= True) can be combined with a system having a specified sampling time; the result will be a discrete-time system with the sample time of the other system. Similarly, a system with timebase None can be combined with a system having any timebase; the result will have the timebase of the other system. The default value of dt can be changed by changing the value of config.defaults['control.default_dt']
.
A state space system is callable and returns the value of the transfer function evaluated at a point in the complex plane. See StateSpace.__call__
for a more detailed description.
Subsystems corresponding to selected input/output pairs can be created by indexing the state space system:
subsys = sys[output_spec, input_spec]
The input and output specifications can be single integers, lists of integers, or slices. In addition, the strings representing the names of the signals can be used and will be replaced with the equivalent signal offsets. The subsystem is created by truncating the inputs and outputs, but leaving the full set of system states.
StateSpace instances have support for IPython HTML/LaTeX output, intended for pretty-printing in Jupyter notebooks. The HTML/LaTeX output can be configured using config.defaults['statesp.latex_num_format']
and config.defaults['statesp.latex_repr_type']
. The HTML/LaTeX output is tailored for MathJax, as used in Jupyter, and may look odd when typeset by non-MathJax LaTeX systems.
config.defaults['statesp.latex_num_format']
is a format string fragment, specifically the part of the format string after ‘{:’ used to convert floating-point numbers to strings. By default it is ‘.3g’.
config.defaults['statesp.latex_repr_type']
must either be ‘partitioned’ or ‘separate’. If ‘partitioned’, the A, B, C, D matrices are shown as a single, partitioned matrix; if ‘separate’, the matrices are shown separately.

The inputs x
and u
must be of the correct length for the system.

= True, remove single-dimensional entries from the shape of the output even if the system is not SISO. If squeeze
= False, keep the output as a 2D array (indexed by the output number and time) even if the system is SISO. The default value can be set using config.defaults['control.squeeze_time_response']
.
