Abstract
SISO linear systems composed of positively interconnected positive sub systems are considered in this paper. In particular, it is shown that these systems have stable zeros (i.e. are minimum phase) if they are s tandard (i.e. stable and excitable) and have only one forward input-ou tput path composed of minimum phase subsystems. Three examples show ho w useful this property is.
