Limiter

Limits the range of a signal

Description

The Limiter component passes its input signal as an output signal when the input is within the range specified by ${u}_{\mathrm{max}}$ and ${u}_{\mathrm{min}}$. If the input is not within the range, the corresponding limits are passed as output. The equation of this component is

 $y=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}{u}_{\mathrm{min}}& {u}_{\mathrm{min}}\ge u\\ u& {u}_{\mathrm{min}} The Signal Size parameter allows the block to operate on a vector of signals rather than a single signal.
