minreal()

Control Systems

minreal() is a MATLAB®-compatible control systems function for minimal realization via pole-zero cancellation. removes common poles and zeros from a transfer function within tolerance 1e-6. returns simplified tf. Run it online in your browser with SimLab — free, no install, no license required.

Minimal realization via pole-zero cancellation. Removes common poles and zeros from a transfer function within tolerance 1e-6. Returns simplified TF.

Syntax

minreal(sys)

Examples — run minreal() in your browser

H = tf([1, 1], [1, 2, 1]); Hmin = minreal(H) % cancels (s+1)/(s+1)^2 = 1/(s+1)
▶ Run
H = tf([1, -1, -2], [1, 0, -4]); minreal(H)
▶ Run

What does minreal() do?

Minimal realization via pole-zero cancellation. Removes common poles and zeros from a transfer function within tolerance 1e-6. Returns simplified TF. It is a MATLAB®-compatible control systems function available in SimLab with the same calling syntax as MATLAB® — typically: minreal(sys).

Can I run minreal() in my browser?

Yes. Open SimLab at simulations4all.com/simlab, write or paste code that calls minreal(), and run it. Execution happens locally in your browser — no data leaves your machine.
