State Attributes
Assign a unique name to each state. Use state names instead of block paths throughout the linearization process.
To assign a name to a single state, enter a unique name between quotes, for example,
'velocity'
.To assign names to multiple states, enter a comma-separated list surrounded by braces, for example,
{'a', 'b', 'c'}
. Each name must be unique.If a parameter is empty (
' '
), no name is assigned.The state names apply only to the selected block with the name parameter.
The number of states must divide evenly among the number of state names.
You can specify fewer names than states, but you cannot specify more names than states.
For example, you can specify two names in a system with four states. The first name applies to the first two states and the second name to the last two states.
To assign state names with a variable in the MATLAB® workspace, enter the variable without quotes. A variable can be a character vector, cell array, or structure.

Algorithms
The relationship between the wind angles, [μ γ χ]T, can be determined by resolving the wind rates into the wind-fixed coordinate frame.
Inverting J then gives the required relationship to determine the wind rate vector.
The body-fixed angular rates are related to the wind-fixed angular rate by the following equation.
Using this relationship in the wind rate vector equations, gives the relationship between the wind rate vector and the body-fixed angular rates.
