  • DiscreteInputOutputModel represents a system whose output at regularly spaced sampling instants is a function of the inputs and previous outputs of the system.
  • DiscreteInputOutputModel can be used to represent discrete-time systems in input-output form, including discrete-time TransferFunctionModel objects. It is typically used to represent the MPC controller computed in ModelPredictiveController.
  • The input-output model represents a moving window of length m of past input and output according to , for .
  • For k=n,…, this equation is periodically extended with and p=TemplateBox[{k, n}, Mod].
  • By default, the inputs and outputs for are assumed to be .
  • For model predictive control, two simple cases are often used:
  • state feedback controller
    state quasi feedback controller
  • The values between the sampling instances are assumed to be constant by default. It is essentially a zero-order hold (ZOH) with interpolation order .
  • The integer sampling instances ki and outputs can be explicitly specified as DiscreteInputOutputModel[{{k0,g0},…,{kn-1,gn-1}},…].
  • The time ti is related to the sampling instant ki by ti=τ ki, where τ is the sampling period specified as DiscreteInputOutputModel[…, SamplingPeriodτ].

Basic Uses  (8)

A system whose output is the current input value:

Wolfram Language code: diom = DiscreteInputOutputModel[{u[0], u[1], u[2]}, u]

Its output is the same as the input:

Wolfram Language code: OutputResponse[diom, {a, b, c}]

For longer input sequences, the output is computed assuming periodicity:

Wolfram Language code: OutputResponse[diom, {a, b, c, d, e}]

A system whose output is the average of the previous and current inputs:

Wolfram Language code: diom = DiscreteInputOutputModel[{(u[-1] + u[0]) / 2}, u]
Wolfram Language code: OutputResponse[diom, {a, b, c, d, e}]

A system whose output is the average of the previous output and current input:

Wolfram Language code: diom = DiscreteInputOutputModel[{(y[-1] + u[0]) / 2}, u, y]
Wolfram Language code: OutputResponse[diom, {a, b, c, d, e}]

Options  (3)

MissingDataMethod  (1)

Specify how to handle missing values:

Wolfram Language code: diom = DiscreteInputOutputModel[{u[0], u[1] + u[0], Missing[], u[3] + u[2]}, u, MissingDataMethod -> {"Interpolation", InterpolationOrder -> 1}]
Wolfram Language code: diom[2]//Simplify

ResamplingMethod  (1)

The default resampling method has interpolation order 0:

Wolfram Language code: diom1 = DiscreteInputOutputModel[{u[0], u[1], u[2]}, u]
Wolfram Language code: {diom1[1], diom1[1.5]}

Specify an interpolation order of 1:

Wolfram Language code: diom1["Path"]
Wolfram Language code: diom1["TimePath"]

The "TimePath" can also be obtained from the "Path" of the "TimeSeries":

Wolfram Language code: diom1["TimeSeries"]["Path"]

A system with sampling period 2:

Wolfram Language code: diom2 = DiscreteInputOutputModel[{u[0], u[1], u[2]}, u, SamplingPeriod -> 2]

The "Path" is in terms of sampling instants, while "TimePath" is in terms of time values:

Wolfram Language code: diom2["Path"]
Wolfram Language code: diom2["TimePath"] diom2["TimeSeries"]["Path"]

Applications  (3)

Compute a lowpass FIR kernel:

Wolfram Language code: ker = LeastSquaresFilterKernel[{"Lowpass", 1}, 10]

Assemble it is as a DiscreteInputOutputModel:

Wolfram Language code: diom = DiscreteInputOutputModel[{ker.Table[u[i], {i, -9, 0}]}, u]

Compute its response to a noisy sinusoid:

Wolfram Language code: inp = Table[Sin[t] + Sin [15t], {t, 0, 2 π, 0.1}]; or1 = OutputResponse[diom, inp][[1]];
Wolfram Language code: ListStepPlot[{inp, or1}, DataRange -> {0, 2π}]

The same result can be obtained using ListConvolve:

Wolfram Language code: or2 = ListConvolve[ker, inp, 1, 0]; ListStepPlot[{inp, or2}, DataRange -> {0, 2π}]

The two responses are indeed the same:

Wolfram Language code: AllTrue[Chop[or1 - or2], # == 0.&]

Compute the discrete approximation of an IIR filter:

Wolfram Language code: bfm = ButterworthFilterModel[2]; ToDiscreteTimeModel[%, 0.1]//TransferFunctionExpand

Assemble it as a DiscreteInputOutputModel:

Wolfram Language code: diom = DiscreteInputOutputModel[{0.01 u[0] + 0.02 u[-1] + 0.01 u[-2] + 7.978 y[-1] - 3.72716 y[-2]} / 4.2928, u, y]

Compute its response to a noisy sinusoidal input:

Wolfram Language code: inp = Sin[0.5 t] + Sin[10 t];p1 = ListStepPlot[OutputResponse[diom, Table[inp, {t, 0, 25, 0.1}]], DataRange -> {0, 25}, PlotStyle -> RGBColor[0.880722, 0.611041, 0.142051]];Legended[Show[Plot[inp, {t, 0, 25}, PlotStyle -> RGBColor[0.368417, 0.506779, 0.709798]], p1], LineLegend[{RGBColor[0.368417, 0.506779, 0.709798], RGBColor[0.880722, 0.611041, 0.142051]}, {"noisy input", "diom response"}]]

The analog TransferFunctionModel representation gives almost the same response:

Wolfram Language code: Legended[Show[p1, Plot[OutputResponse[bfm, inp, {t, 0, 25}], {t, 0, 25}, PlotStyle -> RGBColor[0.560181, 0.691569, 0.194885]]], LineLegend[{RGBColor[0.880722, 0.611041, 0.142051], RGBColor[0.560181, 0.691569, 0.194885]}, {"diom response", "bfm response"}]]

Compute the feedback gains model and closed-loop system for an MPC design:

Wolfram Language code: ssm = StateSpaceModel[{{{0, 1.}, {-5., -4.5}}, {{0}, {1.}}, {{0., 5.}}, {{0}}}, {Subscript[x, 1], Subscript[x, 2]}, {u}, SamplingPeriod -> 1, SystemsModelLabels -> None];
Wolfram Language code: cost = <|"Horizon" -> 3, "StateWeight" -> IdentityMatrix[2], "InputWeight" -> {{1}}|>;
Wolfram Language code: cons = -2{Subscript[x, 1], Subscript[x, 2], u}2;
Wolfram Language code: {fgm, csys} = ModelPredictiveController[ssm, cost, cons, {"FeedbackGainsModel", "ClosedLoopSystem"}]

The feedback gains model is a discrete input-output model and part of the closed-loop system:

Wolfram Language code: csys[[1]]

Simulate the closed-loop system:

Wolfram Language code: or = OutputResponse[csys, PadRight[{0, 0.05, -0.05}, 30]]; ListStepPlot[or, PlotRange -> All]

Properties & Relations  (4)

Form a convolution:

Wolfram Language code: OutputResponse[DiscreteInputOutputModel[{Subscript[c, -1] u[-1] + Subscript[c, 1] u[0]}, u], Array[a, 5]][[1]]

ListConvolve gives the same result:

Wolfram Language code: ListConvolve[{Subscript[c, 1], Subscript[c, -1]}, Array[a, 5], 1, 0]
Wolfram Language code: % == %%

A linear recurrence equation:

Wolfram Language code: Array[α, 3].Reverse[Array[y, 3, -2]] == Array[β, 3].Reverse[Array[u, 3, -2]]

Represent it using a DiscreteInputOutputModel:

Wolfram Language code: y[0] /. Solve[%, y[0]] diom = DiscreteInputOutputModel[%, u, y]

Its response to an input sequence:

Wolfram Language code: or = OutputResponse[%, Array[γ, 4]][[1]]//Simplify

RecurrenceFilter gives the same response:

Wolfram Language code: RecurrenceFilter[{Array[α, 3], Array[β, 3]}, Array[γ, 4]] == or//Simplify

A process with a discrete TransferFunctionModel representation:

Wolfram Language code: tfm = TransferFunctionModel[MAProcess[{a, b, c}, σ^2], z]

It also has a DiscreteInputOutputModel representation:

Wolfram Language code: diom = DiscreteInputOutputModel[{{1, a, b, c}.Table[u[i], {i, 0, -3, -1}]}, u]

The responses are the same:

Wolfram Language code: OutputResponse[tfm, Array[r, 4]] OutputResponse[diom, Array[r, 4]] % == %%

Without input and output variables, DiscreteInputOutputModel is essentially a TimeSeries:

Wolfram Language code: diom = DiscreteInputOutputModel[Range[0, 4], {}, {}] %["Path"]

The equivalent TimeSeries object:

Wolfram Language code: TimeSeries[Table[{i, {i}}, {i, 0, 4}]]

Its path:

Wolfram Language code: %["Path"]

Obtain the time series as a property:

Wolfram Language code: diom["TimeSeries"]

It has the same path:

Wolfram Language code: %["Path"]

The time path can also be obtained directly:

Wolfram Language code: diom["TimePath"]

Possible Issues  (2)

Obtaining the time series could change the specification from a sampling instant to time stamps:

Wolfram Language code: diom = DiscreteInputOutputModel[{u[0], u[1], u[2]}, u, SamplingPeriod -> 0.1]

The value at sampling instant 1:

Wolfram Language code: diom[1]

Compute the equivalent time series:

Wolfram Language code: ts = diom["TimeSeries"]

The time series is not in terms of the sampling instants:

Wolfram Language code: ts[1]

Use the equivalent time stamp:

Wolfram Language code: ts[1 0.1]

The time series path:

Wolfram Language code: ts["Path"]

The time series path from the original model is the same:

Wolfram Language code: diom["TimePath"]

However, the path of the original model is in terms of sampling instants:

Wolfram Language code: diom["Path"]

The initial values and are not used in computing the response of the system:

Wolfram Language code: DiscreteInputOutputModel[{u[0] + y[-2], u[1] + y[0] + u[-1]}, {{u, {-2, -1, 1}}}, {{y, {-1, -1, -1}}}]; OutputResponse[%, Range[7]]
Wolfram Language code: DiscreteInputOutputModel[{u[0] + y[-2], u[1] + y[0] + u[-1]}, {{u, {-2, -1, Missing[]}}}, {{y, {-1, -1, Missing[]}}}]; OutputResponse[%, Range[7]]
