Introduction
• Matlab / Simulink are “de facto” THE TOOLS in education
• But...
– What happens wenn our (ex-) students have to develop
advanced control systems in little companies?
– Mathworks licenses are too expensive for most little
companies!

Python
DTI / ISEA / LSM / Titolo principale della presentazione
Python
• Python is a general-purpose, high-level, object
oriented programming language similar to Matlab,
Scicoslab, Scilab and Octave.
• Its implementation was started in December 1989
(Guido van Rossum at Centrum Wiskunde &
Informatica in the Netherlands)
• Python is often used as a scripting language, but
is also used in a wide range of non-scripting
contexts.
• Distributed under the Python Software Foundation
License (PSFL) similar to BSD license.
• Very large community of developers!
DTI / ISEA / LSM / Titolo principale della presentazione
Python
• Numpy
numeric array
• Scipy
scientific functions
– FFT, Integrate, Interpolate, Optimize, Signal, Sparse,
Statistic
• Matplotlib
Plot functions
• PyQt
Integration with Qt Libraries
• Python-Qwt5
Integration with Qt Widgets
• ...
• Python Control Systems Library (python-control)
DTI / ISEA / LSM / Titolo principale della presentazione
Python for Matlab users
•
The python scripting language is similar to Matlab
– http://wiki.scipy.org/NumPy_for_Matlab_Users
•
Main differencies:
– Indexing (Python is 0 based!)
– Array/Matrix distinction (linear algebra operations!)
– Importing of functions
• from np.linalg import *
• from control.matlab import ss, tf

Python Control Systems Library (python-control)
•
•
2009-2011
– Richard Murray1 – Caltech
• Control-0.3a
– Continous Time systems
– SISO Systems
2011
– Roberto Bucher (SUPSI)
• yottalab.py
– MIMO systems
– Discrete Time systems (Field Tsamp!)
– Set of functions to handle discrete time systems.
– Design of complex discrete controllers was possible!
– yottalab.py distributed with control toolbox as separate toolbox

Python Control Systems Library (python-control)
•
Situation 2014
– Richard Murray (Caltech)
• Control-0.6c
– Some ideas and functions migrated from yottalab to python-control
– Discrete Time systems (dt: sampling time)
– Functions related to discrete time systems
– Roberto Bucher (SUPSI)
• Supsictrl
– yottalab.py
» Few functions not cleanly implemented by Richard Murray
» Some additional functions to simplify the controller design (observer, reduced
order observer, controllers in compact form, anti windup design, etc.)
– RCPblk.py
» Toolbox for Rapid Controller Prototyping, hybrid simulation and Code generation
for RT systems

Python for control – Other related projects
•
Ryan Krauss (Southern Illinois University Edwardsville)
– controls.py
• Some routines related to transfer functions (continous and discrete) only for
education purposes.
•
Python control systems, with only one developper, Rafael G. Martins (only for
education purposes)
Stephen Boyd and Lieven Vandenberghe are now mostly developing
optimization libraries, but a few applications specific to control systems can be
found on their page

Conclusions
• Which alternatives to Matlab / Simulink / RTW?
• Python for control is promising, but not enough mature yet
• Python control is an education toolbox, but not ready for industrial
development
• But
Freedom to develop what we want and need
• Urgent
– Rewrite some functions (ex. Pole placement for MIMO system
gives bad results)
– Graphical editor for block diagram!
