A link between EMTP and MATLAB for user-defined modeling

This paper presents a programmed link between MATLAB and EMTP (Electromagnetic Transients Program). It is an interconnection where MATLAB functions can be called in from the EMTP Fortran code. The interconnection provides a user-defined modeling tool where the high-level computation facilities of MATLAB and its powerful Toolboxes can be advantageously used in the general network simulator context of the EMTP.
