Black's diagram (Nichols'chart) for a linear dynamical system .
sl can be a continuous-time or
discrete-time SIMO system given by its state space,
rational transfer function (see syslin) or zpk representation. In case of
multi-output the outputs are plotted with different
colors.
The frequencies are given by the bounds
fmin,fmax (in Hz) or
by a row-vector (or a matrix for multi-output)
frq.
step is the ( logarithmic )
discretization step. (see calfrq for the choice of default
value).
comments is a vector of character strings
(captions).
db,phi are the matrices of modulus (in Db) and
phases (in degrees). (One row for each response).
repf matrix of complex numbers. One row for each
response.
To plot the grid of iso-gain and iso-phase of
y/(1+y) use nicolschart().
Default values for fmin and
fmax are 1.d-3,
1.d+3 if sl is continuous-time or
1.d-3, 0.5/sl.dt (nyquist frequency)
if sl is discrete-time.
