Syntax

opts = diskmarginoptions
opts = diskmarginoptions('cstprefs')

Description

opts = diskmarginoptions returns the default option set for plots you generate with diskmarginplot and wcdiskmarginplot. You can then use dot notation to change option values. Use opts to customize the plot appearance.

example

opts = diskmarginoptions('cstprefs') initializes the plot options with the options you have specified in the Control System Toolbox™ Preferences Editor. For more information about the editor, see Specify Toolbox Preferences for Linear Analysis Plots.

Open Live Script

Plot the disk margins as a function of frequency of a system with the following open-loop response.

L = tf(25,[1 10 10 10]);

For the plot, specify the following attributes:

  • Frequency units: Hz

  • Gain margins on a log scale, in absolute units

  • Grid on

opts = diskmarginoptions;
opts.FreqUnits = 'Hz';
opts.MagScale = 'log';
opts.MagUnits = 'abs';
opts.grid = 'on';

diskmarginplot(L,opts)

MATLAB figure

Open Live Script

Plot the worst-case disk margins as a function of frequency of a system with the following open-loop response.

a  = ureal('a',10,'PlusMinus',[-4,4]);
L = tf(25,[1 a a a]);

For the plot, use the default preferences specified in your Control System Toolbox™ preference, except specify the following attributes:

  • Frequency units: Hz

  • Gain margins on a log scale, in absolute units

  • Grid on

opts = diskmarginoptions('cstprefs');
opts.FreqUnits = 'Hz';
opts.MagScale = 'log';
opts.MagUnits = 'abs';
opts.grid = 'on';

w = {2*pi*1e-3,2*pi*10};   % rad/s
wcdiskmarginplot(L,w,opts)

The plot you obtain might differ in appearance, depending on your current Control System Toolbox preference settings. (See Specify Toolbox Preferences for Linear Analysis Plots.)

Output Arguments

Options for disk-margin plots of dynamic systems, returned as a diskmarginplot options set. Initialize the value of opts with either default options or the values specified in the Control System Toolbox preferences editor. Customize the option values using dot notation. Then, use opts with diskmarginplot or wcdiskmarginplot to customize plots of the disk-based stability margins of dynamic systems. The following table lists the available options.

Title, XLabel, YLabel

Title and axis label text and style, specified as a structure with the following fields:

  • String — Label of the title, x-axis, or y-axis

  • FontSize

  • FontWeight — 'Normal' (default) or 'Bold'

  • FontAngle — 'Normal' (default) or 'Italic'

  • 'Color' — [0 0 0] (default)
