collapse all in page

Syntax

sys = polyest(data,[na nb nc nd nf nk]) sys = polyest(data,[na nb nc nd nf nk],Name,Value) sys = polyest(data,init_sys) sys = polyest(___, opt)

Description

sys = polyest(data,[na nb nc nd nf nk]) estimates a polynomial model, sys, using the time- or frequency-domain data, data.

sys is of the form

$A (q) y (t) = \frac{B (q)}{F (q)} u (t - n k) + \frac{C (q)}{D (q)} e (t)$

A(q), B(q), F(q), C(q) and D(q) are polynomial matrices. u(t) is the input, and nk is the input delay. y(t) is the output and e(t) is the disturbance signal. na ,nb, nc, nd and nf are the orders of the A(q), B(q), C(q), D(q) and F(q) polynomials, respectively.

sys = polyest(data,[na nb nc nd nf nk],Name,Value) estimates a polynomial model with additional attributes of the estimated model structure specified by one or more Name,Value pair arguments.

sys = polyest(data,init_sys) estimates a polynomial model using the linear system init_sys to configure the initial parameterization.

sys = polyest(___, opt) estimates a polynomial model using the option set, opt, to specify estimation behavior.

Input Arguments

`data`	Estimation data. For time-domain estimation, `data` is an `iddata` object containing the input and output signal values. You can estimate only discrete-time models using time-domain data. For estimating continuous-time models using time-domain data, see `tfest`. For frequency-domain estimation, `data` can be one of the following: Recorded frequency response data (`frd` or `idfrd`) `iddata` object with its properties specified as follows: `InputData` — Fourier transform of the input signal `OutputData` — Fourier transform of the output signal `Domain` — ‘Frequency’ It may be more convenient to use `oe` or `tfest` to estimate a model for frequency-domain data.
`na`	Order of the polynomial A(q). `na` is an Ny-by-Ny matrix of nonnegative integers. Ny is the number of outputs, and Nu is the number of inputs. `na` must be zero if you are estimating a model using frequency-domain data.
`nb`	Order of the polynomial B(q) + 1. `nb` is an Ny-by-Nu matrix of nonnegative integers. Ny is the number of outputs, and Nu is the number of inputs.
`nc`	Order of the polynomial C(q). `nc` is a column vector of nonnegative integers of length Ny. Ny is the number of outputs. `nc` must be zero if you are estimating a model using frequency-domain data.
`nd`	Order of the polynomial D(q). `nd` is a column vector of nonnegative integers of length Ny. Ny is the number of outputs. `nd` must be zero if you are estimating a model using frequency-domain data.
`nf`	Order of the polynomial F(q). `nf` is an Ny-by-Nu matrix of nonnegative integers. Ny is the number of outputs, and Nu is the number of inputs.
`nk`	Input delay in number of samples, expressed as fixed leading zeros of the B polynomial. `nk` is an Ny-by-Nu matrix of nonnegative integers. `nk` must be zero when estimating a continuous-time model.
`opt`	Estimation options. `opt` is an options set, created using `polyestOptions`, that specifies estimation options including: Estimation objective Handling of initial conditions Numerical search method to be used in estimation
`init_sys`	Linear system that configures the initial parameterization of `sys`. You obtain `init_sys` by either performing an estimation using measured data or by direct construction. If `init_sys` is an `idpoly` model, `polyest` uses the parameters and constraints defined in `init_sys` as the initial guess for estimating `sys`. Use the `Structure` property of `init_sys` to configure initial guesses and constraints for A(q), B(q), F(q), C(q), and D(q). For example: To specify an initial guess for the A(q) term of `init_sys`, set `init_sys.Structure.A.Value` as the initial guess. To specify constraints for the B(q) term of `init_sys`: Set `init_sys.Structure.B.Minimum` to the minimum B(q) coefficient values. Set `init_sys.Structure.B.Maximum` to the maximum B(q) coefficient values. Set `init_sys.Structure.B.Free` to indicate which B(q) coefficients are free for estimation. If `init_sys` is not an `idpoly` model, the software first converts `init_sys` to a polynomial model. `polyest` uses the parameters of the resulting model as the initial guess for estimation. If `opt` is not specified, and `init_sys` is created by estimation, then the estimation options from `init_sys.Report.OptionsUsed` are used.

Name-Value Pair Arguments

Specify optional comma-separated pairs of Name,Value arguments. Name is the argument name and Value is the corresponding value. Name must appear inside quotes. You can specify several name and value pair arguments in any order as Name1,Value1,...,NameN,ValueN.

'IODelay'

Transport delays. IODelay is a numeric array specifying a separate transport delay for each input/output pair.

For continuous-time systems, specify transport delays in the time unit stored in the TimeUnit property. For discrete-time systems, specify transport delays in integer multiples of the sample time, Ts.

For a MIMO system with Ny outputs and Nu inputs, set IODelay to a Ny-by-Nu array. Each entry of this array is a numerical value that represents the transport delay for the corresponding input/output pair. You can also set IODelay to a scalar value to apply the same delay to all input/output pairs.

Default: 0 for all input/output pairs

'InputDelay'

Input delay for each input channel, specified as a scalar value or numeric vector. For continuous-time systems, specify input delays in the time unit stored in the TimeUnit property. For discrete-time systems, specify input delays in integer multiples of the sample time Ts. For example, InputDelay = 3 means a delay of three sample times.

For a system with Nu inputs, set InputDelay to an Nu-by-1 vector. Each entry of this vector is a numerical value that represents the input delay for the corresponding input channel.

You can also set InputDelay to a scalar value to apply the same delay to all channels.

Default: 0

'IntegrateNoise'

Logical vector specifying integrators in the noise channel.

IntegrateNoise is a logical vector of length Ny, where Ny is the number of outputs.

Setting IntegrateNoise to true for a particular output results in the model:

$A (q) y (t) = \frac{B (q)}{F (q)} u (t - n k) + \frac{C (q)}{D (q)} \frac{e (t)}{1 - q^{- 1}}$

Where, $\frac{1}{1 - q^{- 1}}$ is the integrator in the noise channel, e(t).

Use IntegrateNoise to create an ARIMAX model.

For example,

load iddata1 z1;
z1 = iddata(cumsum(z1.y),cumsum(z1.u),z1.Ts,'InterSample','foh');
sys = polyest(z1, [2 2 2 0 0 1],'IntegrateNoise',true);

Output Arguments

sys

Polynomial model, returned as an idpoly model. This model is created using the specified model orders, delays, and estimation options.

If data.Ts is zero, sys is a continuous-time model representing:

$Y (s) = \frac{B (s)}{F (s)} U (s) + E (s)$

Y(s), U(s) and E(s) are the Laplace transforms of the time-domain signals y(t), u(t) and e(t), respectively.

Estimate a model with redundant parameterization. That is, a model with all polynomials ( $A$ , $B$ , $C$ , $D$ , and $F$ ) active.

Load estimation data.

load iddata2 z2;

Specify the model orders and delays.

na = 2; 
nb = 2; 
nc = 3; 
nd = 3; 
nf = 2; 
nk = 1;

Estimate the model.

sys = polyest(z2,[na nb nc nd nf nk]);

Estimate Polynomial Model Using Regularization

Open Live Script

Estimate a regularized polynomial model by converting a regularized ARX model.

Load estimation data.

load regularizationExampleData.mat m0simdata;

Estimate an unregularized polynomial model of order 20.

m1 = polyest(m0simdata(1:150),[0 20 20 20 20 1]);

opt = polyestOptions;
opt.Regularization.Lambda = 1;
m2 = polyest(m0simdata(1:150),[0 20 20 20 20 1],opt);

Obtain a lower-order polynomial model by converting a regularized ARX model and reducing its order. Use arxregul to determine the regularization parameters.

[L,R] = arxRegul(m0simdata(1:150),[30 30 1]);
opt1 = arxOptions;
opt1.Regularization.Lambda = L;
opt1.Regularization.R = R;
m0 = arx(m0simdata(1:150),[30 30 1],opt1);
mr = idpoly(balred(idss(m0),7));

Compare the model outputs against the data.

opt2 = compareOptions('InitialCondition','z');
compare(m0simdata(150:end),m1,m2,mr,opt2);

Estimate ARIMAX model

Open Live Script

Load input/output data and create cumulative sum input and output signals for estimation.

load iddata1 z1
data = iddata(cumsum(z1.y),cumsum(z1.u),z1.Ts,'InterSample','foh');

Specify the model polynomial orders. Set the orders of the inactive polynomials, $D$ and $F$ , to 0.

na = 2; 
nb = 2; 
nc = 2; 
nd = 0; 
nf = 0; 
nk = 1;

Identify an ARIMAX model by setting the 'IntegrateNoise' option to true.

sys = polyest(data,[na nb nc nd nf nk],'IntegrateNoise',true);

Estimate Multi-Output ARMAX Model

Open Live Script

Estimate a multi-output ARMAX model for a multi-input, multi-output data set.

Load estimation data.

load iddata1 z1
load iddata2 z2
data = [z1 z2(1:300)];

data is a data set with 2 inputs and 2 outputs. The first input affects only the first output. Similarly, the second input affects only the second output.

Specify the model orders and delays. The F and D polynomials are inactive.

na = [2 2; 2 2]; 
nb = [2 2; 3 4]; 
nk = [1 1; 0 0]; 
nc = [2;2]; 
nd = [0;0]; 
nf = [0 0; 0 0];

Estimate the model.

sys = polyest(data,[na nb nc nd nf nk]);

In the estimated ARMAX model, the cross terms, which model the effect of the first input on the second output and vice versa, are negligible. If you assigned higher orders to those dynamics, their estimation would show a high level of uncertainty.

Analyze the results.

h = bodeplot(sys);
showConfidence(h,3)

The responses from the cross terms show larger uncertainty.

Tips

In most situations, all the polynomials of an identified polynomial model are not simultaneously active. Set one or more of the orders na, nc, nd and nf to zero to simplify the model structure.
For example, you can estimate an Output-Error (OE) model by specifying na, nc and nd as zero.
Alternatively, you can use a dedicated estimating function for the simplified model structure. Linear polynomial estimation functions include oe, bj, arx and armax.

Alternatives

To estimate a polynomial model using time-series data, use ar.
Use polyest to estimate a polynomial of arbitrary structure. If the structure of the estimated polynomial model is known, that is, you know which polynomials will be active, then use the appropriate dedicated estimating function. For examples, for an ARX model, use arx. Other polynomial model estimating functions include, oe, armax, and bj.
To estimate a continuous-time transfer function, use tfest. You can also use oe, but only with continuous-time frequency-domain data.
