The Identification Package Sater

Abstract An interactive program package for identification of linear single-input single-output systems is described with respect to its structure and its contents of identification methods and related operations. This computer package is primarily meant for rather inexperienced users in the field of (application of) identification methods and for students. Therefore the type of interaction has been chosen to be very user friendly. The package contains several parameter estimation routines, several order testing routines, a converting program for converting discrete models into continuous models, simulation- and test signal generation modules, facilities for preprocessing measured signals, as well as modules for analysing continuous systems based on Nyquist, Bode- and root-locus diagrams.
