Hyperlink is a HYPERSIM module allowing users to import Simulink models via code generation.

Supported Features

MATLAB versions from R2015b to
R2022a
R2024a
MATLAB Coder license
Simulink Coder or Embedded Coder license
Multiple instances modelling: ability to use several instances of the same Simulink model
Tunable parameters
Model confidentiality via compilation
Multiple time step code generation (R2015b to R2019b only, Simulink coder only). Embedded coder and model confidentiality are not supported
Multiple rates within one model
Inline S-functions and MATLAB functions
Support of non-inline S-functions (allow users to write custom C code in Simulink models) for Embedded coder targets (R2015b to
R2022a
R2024a) and Simulink coder target (R2015b to
R2022a
R2024a)
Integration of Simulink Scopes (to monitor internal variables via HYPERSIM sensors)
Only standard Simulink signals can be exchanged with HYPERSIM
Simscape components can be imported via voltage and current measurement and injection converting Simscape signals to standard Simulink signals
Fixed step solvers: discrete and ode1
Fixed step solvers: ode2, ode3, ode4, ode5, ode8 and ode14x are supported if a zero-order hold (with a sample period of a major time step) is inserted before each output of the model

Minimal Prerequisites

MATLAB version between
R2012a
R2015b and
R2020b
R2024a
The MATLAB license must include:
- MATLAB coder (to generate C/C++ code on MATLAB, prerequisite for Simulink Coder)
- Simulink coder (to generated C/C++ code on Simulink)

The Embedded coder license can be used for a better optimization and customization on the generated code improving the performance.

Simulink model with variable time step: the time step for the solver is always fixed
External mode (ability to modify model parameters during the simulation): it’s replaced by tunable parameters in HYPERSIM
Data logging
S-functions based on .m (S-functions based on C-code are allowed)
m-functions (except by using the MATLAB function block)
