ObservableDecomposition

ObservableDecomposition[ss]
yields the observable decomposition of the StateSpaceModel object ss. The result is a list where is the transformation matrix and is the observable subspace of ss.
MORE INFORMATION
  • The state-space model ss can be given as StateSpaceModel, where a, b, c, and d represent the state, input, output, and transmission matrices in either a continuous-time or a discrete-time system:
continuous-time system
discrete-time system
  • For continuous-time systems, the transformation , where is the subspace spanned by the controllability matrix, yields the observable subspace of the system as , .
  • The similarity transformation , where is the unobservable subspace, gives the Kalman observable form , of the system.
