Abstract

This paper is concerned with an eigenvector problem in multi-variable descriptor control systems. It proves that the eigenvectors and generalized eigenvectors premultiplied by the singular matrix E of the descriptor system as well as the eigenvectors and the generalized eigenvectors, which play a very important role in the design of multi-variable descriptor systems via eigenstructure assignment, are linearly independent.
