An approach to the linear multivariable servomechanism problem.This paper presents a state-space approach to the multivariable 'type one' servomechanism problem. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the controllability of such systems are derived and applied to the observability of the (dual) state reconstructor problem for a system with an unknown constant input. The paper also presents a simple systematic design algorithm which provides type one servomechanism performance to command inputs, together with pre-specified closed-loop pole locations. Examples are given to illustrate the utility of the design procedure.
