Abstract

A matrix-operator representation of parameter sensitivities is used to provide an algebraic "structural" analysis of local parameter identifiability in linear time-invariant ordinary differential equation systems. Necessary conditions for identifiability depend only upon the system matrices, no integrals must be computed, and arbitrary parametrization may be used. Relations to insensitivity are discussed, and design techniques are suggested which use the nonidentifiable (insensitive) subspace to systematically reduce the number of exciting parameters in individually designed parameter identification experiments. Finally, sufficiency conditions for zero-state identifiability are examined in terms of control inputs which continually excite the natural modes of the parameter sensitivities.
