Designing Strictly Positive Real Transfer Function Families: A Necessary and Sufficient Condition for Low Degree and Structured Families

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Progress in Systems and Control Theory ((PSCT,volume 4))

Abstract

Consider a transfer function family n(s)/d(s) where n(s) ε N with N being an interval of polynomials. In this paper we study the problem of designing a d(s) such that n(s)/d(s) is strictly positive real for all choices n(s) from N. A necessary condition for the existence of such a d(s) is that N be stable. We show that this condition is also sufficient for low degree systems (degree ≤ 3) and when N has some added structure.
