Description

The LU Solver block solves the linear system AX=B by applying LU factorization to the M-by-M matrix at the A port. The input to the B port is the right-hand side M-by-N matrix, B. The output is the unique solution of the equations, M-by-N matrix X, and is always sample-based.

A length-M 1-D vector input for right-hand side B is treated as an M-by-1 matrix.

Algorithm

The LU algorithm factors a row-permuted variant (Ap) of the square input matrix A as

where L is a lower-triangular square matrix with unity diagonal elements, and U is an upper-triangular square matrix.

The matrix factors are substituted for Ap in

where Bp is the row-permuted variant of B, and the resulting equation

is solved for X by making the substitution Y = UX, and solving two triangular systems.
