Syntax

tt = iddata2timetable(data)

Description

tt = iddata2timetable(data) creates the timetable object tt from the iddata object data.

tt retains the signal names from data as variable names. The software also converts other iddata properties, such as sample time, into timetable properties. For more information, see tt.

z1.InputName
ans = 1×1 cell array

z1.OutputName
ans = 1×1 cell array
    {'y1'}


z1.Tstart
ans = 0.1000

z1.Ts
ans = 0.1000

Convert z1 to the timetable tt1.

tt1 = iddata2timetable(z1);

      Use addprop and rmprop to modify CustomProperties.

tt1 preserves the dimensions and properties of z1 that are equivalent to timetable properties.

Load two iddata objects, each of which contain the input/output data for a single experiment.

load iddata1 z1
load iddata3 z3

Merge the objects into a single multiexperiment object.

z13 = merge(z1,z3)
z13 =
Time domain data set containing 2 experiments.

Experiment   Samples      Sample Time          
   Exp1         300            0.1             
   Exp2         300            1

Convert z13 to a timetable tt13.

tt13 = iddata2timetable(z13)
tt13=1×2 cell array
    {300×2 timetable}    {300×2 timetable}

tt13 is a cell array containing two timetables that correspond to the two experiments.

Input Arguments

collapse all

iddata object to convert, specified as a time-domain iddata object that can contain data from multiple experiments.

Output Arguments

collapse all

Timetable that contains the measurement data from data, returned as a timetable or, for multiexperiment data, a cell array of timetables. For multiexperiment data, the ith timetable in the cell array corresponds to the ith experiment in data.

In addition to the measurement data, the conversion process also extracts data property information and uses it to update the following equivalent timetable properties: VariableNames, VariableUnits, TimeStep, TimeUnit, and UserData.
