Thisfunction is especially useful for building open loop interconnections for H ∞ and H 2designs or for closing loops with these controllers.Although this function is general purpose, the use of sysgroup sysmult, sysconnectand the like is recommended for standard operations since they can handle mixeddiscrete and continuous systems and also the names of inputs, outputs, and states.The parameters consist of 4 lists that describe the connections outputs and inputsand up to 8 systems s1–s8.
