The model matching problem for single-input single-output singularly p
erturbed systems is considered. Two sets of sufficient conditions are
obtained to guarantee the existence of a two-frequency-scale solution:
one for the optimal and one for a suboptimal case. Both the minimum-p
hase and the non-minumum-phase cases are treated. The sub-optimal two-
frequency-scale solution constructed in this paper uses the solutions
of two well-defined lower-order problems, and therefore it is numerica
lly better conditioned and computationally less demanding than the tra
ditional optimal methods. A two-stage algorithm for the computation of
the suboptimal TFS solution is presented.
