Vector Fitting

VFIT2

vfit2.zip contains version 2.1 of vectfit (routine: vectfit2.m). The examples show how to fit scalars, columns and entire matrices, and how to formulate the model in the form of state-space models and pole-residue models.

This package shows how to apply the new version of Vector Fitting (vectfit2.m) to the rational approximation of frequency responses (scalar or vector functions). Important features:

  • Choose between sparse or non-sparse computations
  • Choose between Normal Equations or QR decomposition.
  • Options for skipping pole identification or residue identification
  • Choose between returned model on the form of pole-residue terms or state-space model

The user’s guide and the examples explain how to

  • Apply VF to multi-terminal systems
  • Maximize computational speed
  • Specify initial poles and weighting
