Abstract
We derive a new controllability rank test for general first-order repr esentations. The criterion generalizes the well-known controllability rank test for linear input-state systems as well as a controllability rank test by Mertzios et al. for descriptor systems. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
