Description

The Swept Sine block generates steering, accelerator, and brake commands to conduct a swept sine maneuver. Once the vehicle reaches the target longitudinal velocity, the block initiates a swept sinusoidal steering command using the prescribed amplitude, final frequency, and duration.

You can use the swept sine maneuver to characterize the transient vehicle response as done in ISO 7401:2011.

Note

For information on the reference generator block used in the swept sine reference application, see Swept Sine Reference Generator.
