Abstract
This paper considers approximating a given nth-order stable transfer matrix G(s) by an rth-order stable transfer matrix G/sub r/(s) in which n/spl Gt/r, and where n is large. The Arnoldi process is used to generate a basis to a part of the controllability subspace associated with the realization of G(s), and a residual error is defined for any approximation in this subspace. We establish that minimizing the L/sub /spl infin// norm of this residual error over the set of stable approximations leads to a 2-block distance problem. Finally, the solution of this distance problem is used to construct reduced-order approximate models. The behavior of the algorithms is illustrated with a simple example.
