4.1. THE HIMAT EXAMPLE 129
Figure 4.2: Interconnection structure for the himat design example
The inputs are the elevon position and the canard position. The outputs that are to be
kept small are angle-of-attack (α) and pitch angle (θ).
The commands required to enter the state-space description are simply matrix
assignments for each of A, B, C and D. Note that the states, inputs and outputs are
named.
