Abstract
In this note, we study the following problem, ''Under what condition(s ) is it possible to find a single controller which stabilizes k single -input single-output linear time-invariant systems p(i)(s) (i = 1, ... , k)?''. We introduce the concept of avoidance in the complex plane an d use it to derive a sufficient condition for k systems to be simultan eously stabilizable. A method for constructing a simultaneous stabiliz ing controller is also provided and illustrated by an example.
