Rank condition for the controllability of a linear time-varying system

From MaRDI portal





Linear, continuous-time, time-varying, finite-dimensional control systems with unbounded controls are considered. Using algebraic methods, a simple rank condition for the controllability in a given time interval for certain special class of control systems is formulated and proved. Moreover, several remarks and comments on controllability problems for linear time-varying control systems are also given. Similar controllability considerations can be found in the monograph [\textit{J. Klamka}, Controllability of dynamical systems, Kluwer Academic Publishers, Dordrecht (1991; Zbl 0732.93008)], and in the paper [\textit{L. M. Silverman} and \textit{H. E. Meadows}, SIAM J. Control 5, 64-73 (1967; Zbl 0163.11001)].
