Abstract
Ways are discussed of using singular-value decompositions of operator-valued functions of the complex frequency variable in the analysis and design of linear multivariable feedback systems. The local and global behaviour of such a decomposition is briefly discussed. Ways in which phase information may be added to singular values are considered, and the use of a particular method — the Quasi-Nyquist decomposition — is developed for use in design.
