Ramp
A linearly increasing or decreasing signal generator.
blockType: Ramp
|
Path in the library: |
Description
Block Ramp generates a signal that starts at a specified time with a preset value and changes at a preset rate. Parameters Slope, Start time and Initial Output determine the characteristics of the output signal. They should all have the same dimension (after scalar expansion).
