Transfer function models are very similar to ARMA models. The AR and MA parts
are the denominator and numerator of the transfer function. I tend to think of
these models as the same, with a different emphasis in the terminology. With
transfer functions, one typically thinks of the input as a control (and often
ignores any random inputs). ARMA models typically have random (noise) input and
are called ARMAX if there is a control input (exogenous) in addition to the
noise.

There are a few functions on CRAN for ARMA models. See arima in the ts package
or for multivariate models consider various methods in the dse bundle.
