Abstract

A time domain method is given for estimating the matrix of related parameters in linear systems with constant coefficients and real eigenvalues. The method consists of a one-dimensional search for the local minima of a scalar function μ(λ), which provide the eigenvalues of the system matrix and the matrix itself when observable. Applications are given to the determination of a transfer function and the estimation of the rate matrix of a monomolecular reaction system. Questions of accuracy, number, and type of measurements required are discussed.
