+<H2>What is a ssm object?</H2>
+<P>The ssm class is a class to use &ldquo;state space models&rdquo;
+for simulation, identification and modeling in the toolbox. A state
+space model is a mathematical object constituted of</P>
+<UL>
+	<LI><P>A time model represented by the field &ldquo;timestep&rdquo;,
+	either discrete or continuous (&ldquo;timestep&rdquo; is then 0)</P>
+	<LI><P>A linear differential equation, which turns into a difference
+	equation it the model is time discrete. This equation is written
+	using a state space x in the form x' = Ax + Bu where A is the state
+	transition matrix and B the state input matrix, u being the
+	exogenous input signal. In this setup, x and u are time series.</P>
+	<LI><P>An observation equation which allows for linear observation
+	of the input and the state : y = Cx+Du. The variable y is the output
+	of the system.</P>
+</UL>
+<P>Input and output variables (lines in u and y) may be named and
+assigned a unit. However for the state x there is more of a choice
+since if free of choice via a basis change. The most usual choice is
+that x contents the same units as y and it derivatives, or the same
+units as u and its integrals. In general the size of the state space
+is equal to the number of poles in the system.</P>
+<P>In the LTPDA toolbox, lines in u,y,x are grouped in blocks (input
+blocks, state blocks, output blocks) to ease the understanding of a
+large system. This means the matrices A, B, C, and D are also split
+into blocks of the corresponding size. The diagonal blocks of A may
+represent the dynamics of a LTP subsystem (the controller, the
+propulsion &hellip;) or the coupling between two systems (from the
+propulsion to the equations of motion)... In addition the dynamic
+equation also contains an inertia matrix M so that the parametric
+equation is made simple. The equation becomes M x' = Ax + Bu. If not
+user set M is supposed to be the identity.</P>
+<P>Below we build a standard system to show the contents of the
+object.</P>

+The fields &ldquo;amats&rdquo;, &ldquo;mmats&rdquo;, &ldquo;bmats&rdquo;,
+&ldquo;cmats&rdquo;, &ldquo;dmats&rdquo; contain the matrices of the
+differential and observation equation of a mass spring system with
+dampening.</P>
+<P>The systems inputs/states/outputs are listed by blocks. There are
+two input blocks, which correspond to the commanded signal (U) and
+the noise (N). There is one state block and one output block. Each
+input has its name displayed followed with individual input variable
+names and units. Note that the empty ssm object does not have an
+input block, a state block and an output block of size 0, it has no
+such blocks, and the size fields are empty.</P>
+<P>The &ldquo;params&rdquo; field is the 1x1 default plist with no
+parameter. This is the case when the system is fully numerical,
+parameters are deleted from the field &ldquo;params&rdquo; as they
+get substituted .</P>
+<P>Inputs, states and output sizes are summed up in the fields N* and
+*sizes.</P>
