Abstract

In this paper we study the high-gain feedback classification problem for generalized state space systems. We solve this problem for proportional and derivative feedback transformations of regularizable systems, i.e., we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a regularizable system to be a limit of a given system under high-gain proportional and derivative feedback. We also derive a new complete set of invariants for proportional feedback equivalence and specify a set of necessary conditions for a system to be the limit of another system under these feedback transformations. The necessary conditions are sufficient for arbitrary state space systems and for controllable singular systems.
