Chapter 9 Trackability theory

9.1 Trackability versus controllability

Kalman's concept of the state controllability has become a fundamental control concept, [199]-[203]. E. G. Gilbert [66] generalized it to the MIMO systems. M. L. J. Hautus [186] established for them the simple form of the controllability criterion in the complex domain.

J. E. Bertram and P. E. Sarachik [14] broadened the state controllability concept to the output controllability concept.

Both the state controllability concept and the output controllability concept consider the system possibility of steering a state or an output from any initial state or from any initial output to another state or another output, in general, or to the zero state or to the zero output, in ...
