Abstract
Given a reachable discrete-time linear system (A, b), the reachable se t is a cone when a positive constraint is imposed on the input. The pr oblem to be studied is the geometrical structure of the reachable set R = cone(b, Ab, A(2)b,...) in terms of the spectrum of A. Zn particula r, conditions which ensure R, or its closure (R) over bar, is a polyhe dral proper cone are derived. The impact of the given results on finit e-time reachability and positive realizability is also discussed.
