Solution
Yes, LabVIEW's PID Control Toolset includes a State-Space VI that can be used to simulate MIMO models given in state-space form. MIMO systems are usually represented by:
dx(t)/dt = Ax(t) + Bu(t)
y(t) = Cx(t) + Du(t)
where
- x is the state vector
- u and y are the input and the output vectors
- A, B, C and D are the state-space matrices
The State-Space VI calculates the new output and the internal states when given the state-space representation, the initial condition, and the input vectors. If the PID Control Toolset is installed, the State-Space VI is available on the Control Design and Simulation»Control Design»Model Construction palette.
If you have LabVIEW Control Design and Simulation Module (applies to LabVIEW 8.5 or above), you can use the State-Space VI on the Control Design and Simulation»Simulation»Continuous Linear Systems palette or the CD Construct State-Space Model VI on the Control Design and Simulation»Control Design»Model Construction palette.
Note: The LabVIEW Control Design and Simulation Module was deprecated in 2023, meaning that the latest version available for download is 2022 Q3. See details here: Control Design and Simulation VIs for LabVIEW 2023 and Newer
