Description

The Discrete Second-Order Low-Pass Filter block models, in the discrete-time domain, a second-order low-pass filter characterized by a cut-off frequency and a damping ratio. This block supports vector input signals and can have its filter Cut-off frequency, Damping ratio and Initial condition parameters set either internally using its dialog box or externally using input ports. The filtered output is always continuous even after any parameter change (e.g., Cut-off frequency and/or Damping ratio).

This filter is a discrete-time version of the continuous-time transfer function shown below:

where ω_n is the cut-off frequency and ζ is the damping ratio. The discretization is done using the zero-order hold method.

Input Ports

x

The input signal to the discrete second-order low-pass filter.

wn

This port appears when the Source of parameters is set to External (input ports), and provides the cut-off frequency (in radians per second, i.e., rad/s) of the second-order low-pass filter.

zt

This port appears when the Source of parameters is set to External (input ports), and provides the damping ratio of the second-order low-pass filter.

x0

This port appears when the Source of parameters is set to External (input ports), and provides the input signal initial condition to the second-order low-pass filter.

Output Ports

y

The (filtered) output signal from the second-order low-pass filter.

yd

The time-derivative of the output signal from the second-order low-pass filter.

Data Type Support

The block outputs are of type double.

Parameters and Dialog Box

Source of parameters

The source of the discrete filter Cut-off frequency, Damping ratio and Initial condition parameters is determined by this field to be to be Internal (dialog parameter) or External (block inputs).

Cut-off frequency (rad/s) (tunable online)

This parameter sets the cut-off frequency (in radians per second, i.e., rad/s) of the second-order low-pass filter.

Damping ratio (tunable online)

This parameter sets the damping ratio of the second-order low-pass filter.

Initial condition (tunable offline)

This parameter sets the initial condition of the second-order low-pass filter.

Sample time (s)

The sample time (in seconds, i.e., s) of the block.
