zeropen

[Z, U] = zeropen(Sl)

Arguments

Sl

a linear system (syslin list in state-space form [A,B,C,D])

Z

matrix pencil Z=s*E-A

U

square orthogonal matrix

Description

Z= sE - F is the zero pencil of the linear system Sl with matrices [A,B,C,D]. Utility function.

With U row compression of [B;D] i.e, U*[B;D]=[0;*]; one has:

The zeros of Z are the zeros of Sl.
