Controllability is an important property of a control system and plays a crucial role in many control problems, such as stabilization of unstable systems by feedback, or optimal control. Controllability and observability are dual aspects of the same problem.
In control theory, we may need to find out whether or not a system such as ˙ = + () = + is controllable, where , , and are, respectively, , , and matrices for a system with inputs, state variables and outputs.
Observability is a measure of how well internal states of a system can be inferred from knowledge of its external outputs. In control theory, the observability and controllability of a linear system are mathematical duals. The concept of observability was introduced by the Hungarian-American engineer Rudolf E. Kálmán for linear dynamic systems.
Controllability and observability are main issues in the analysis of a system before deciding the best control strategy to be applied, or whether it is even possible to control or stabilize the system. Controllability is related to the possibility of forcing the system into a particular state by using an appropriate control signal.
In quantum chemistry, the Gram matrix of a set of basis vectors is the overlap matrix. In control theory (or more generally systems theory), the controllability Gramian and observability Gramian determine properties of a linear system.
In control engineering and system identification, a state-space representation is a mathematical model of a physical system that uses state variables to track how inputs shape system behavior over time through first-order differential equations or difference equations. These state variables change based on their current values and inputs, while ...
One can determine if the LTI system is or is not observable simply by looking at the pair (,). Then, we can say that the following statements are equivalent: 1. The pair (,) is observable. 2. The matrix
The phrase H ∞ control comes from the name of the mathematical space over which the optimization takes place: H ∞ is the Hardy space of matrix-valued functions that are analytic and bounded in the open right-half of the complex plane defined by Re(s) > 0; the H ∞ norm is the supremum singular value of the matrix over that
