How to define any simulink bus to accept the array output?

I've created one bus object and I want to assign a vector concetenate output (which is array vector) to that bus object but I'm getting and issue while simulating that its invalid since it refers to a bus element within an array of sub-buses.

Can we define simulink bus to accept aaray output ?

Hi Anju,

Here are a few approaches you can use to assign a vector output (array) to a Simulink Bus:

• The simplest approach is to define a Simulink Bus with an element that explicitly supports arrays. Ensure that the Vector Concatenate output matches the defined dimensions.
• Simulink does not allow direct assignment of an array to an array of buses. However, you can assign each array element to a specific bus instance using the Bus Selector and Bus Assignment blocks.
• You can also flatten the bus structure by defining a Simulink Bus with separate elements instead of using a bus array. Then, use a Bus Creator block with multiple inputs, each receiving a corresponding element from the vector output.

For more information on "Work with Arrays of Buses", refer to the following MATLAB documentation link:

Hope this helps.
