<B>Mode Parameters</B>
<PRE>
DICO CHARACTER*1
Specifies the type of the original system as follows:
= 'C': continuous-time system;
= 'D': discrete-time system.
JOB CHARACTER*1
Specifies the model reduction approach to be used
as follows:
= 'B': use the square-root Balance & Truncate method;
= 'N': use the balancing-free square-root
Balance & Truncate method.
EQUIL CHARACTER*1
Specifies whether the user wishes to preliminarily
equilibrate the triplet (A,B,C) as follows:
= 'S': perform equilibration (scaling);
= 'N': do not perform equilibration.
ORDSEL CHARACTER*1
Specifies the order selection method as follows:
= 'F': the resulting order NR is fixed;
= 'A': the resulting order NR is automatically determined
on basis of the given tolerance TOL.
</PRE>
<B>Input/Output Parameters</B>
<PRE>
N (input) INTEGER
The order of the original state-space representation, i.e.
the order of the matrix A. N >= 0.
M (input) INTEGER
The number of system inputs. M >= 0.
P (input) INTEGER
The number of system outputs. P >= 0.
NR (input/output) INTEGER
On entry with ORDSEL = 'F', NR is the desired order of the
resulting reduced order system. 0 <= NR <= N.
On exit, if INFO = 0, NR is the order of the resulting
reduced order model. For a system with NU ALPHA-unstable
eigenvalues and NS ALPHA-stable eigenvalues (NU+NS = N),
NR is set as follows: if ORDSEL = 'F', NR is equal to
NU+MIN(MAX(0,NR-NU),NMIN), where NR is the desired order
on entry, and NMIN is the order of a minimal realization
of the ALPHA-stable part of the given system; NMIN is
determined as the number of Hankel singular values greater
than NS*EPS*HNORM(As,Bs,Cs), where EPS is the machine
precision (see LAPACK Library Routine DLAMCH) and
HNORM(As,Bs,Cs) is the Hankel norm of the ALPHA-stable
part of the given system (computed in HSV(1));
if ORDSEL = 'A', NR is the sum of NU and the number of
Hankel singular values greater than
MAX(TOL,NS*EPS*HNORM(As,Bs,Cs)).
ALPHA (input) DOUBLE PRECISION
Specifies the ALPHA-stability boundary for the eigenvalues
of the state dynamics matrix A. For a continuous-time
system (DICO = 'C'), ALPHA <= 0 is the boundary value for
the real parts of eigenvalues, while for a discrete-time
system (DICO = 'D'), 0 <= ALPHA <= 1 represents the
boundary value for the moduli of eigenvalues.
The ALPHA-stability domain does not include the boundary.
A (input/output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDA,N)
On entry, the leading N-by-N part of this array must
contain the state dynamics matrix A.
On exit, if INFO = 0, the leading NR-by-NR part of this
array contains the state dynamics matrix Ar of the reduced
order system.
The resulting A has a block-diagonal form with two blocks.
For a system with NU ALPHA-unstable eigenvalues and
NS ALPHA-stable eigenvalues (NU+NS = N), the leading
NU-by-NU block contains the unreduced part of A
corresponding to ALPHA-unstable eigenvalues in an
upper real Schur form.
The trailing (NR+NS-N)-by-(NR+NS-N) block contains
the reduced part of A corresponding to ALPHA-stable
eigenvalues.
LDA INTEGER
The leading dimension of array A. LDA >= MAX(1,N).
B (input/output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDB,M)
On entry, the leading N-by-M part of this array must
contain the original input/state matrix B.
On exit, if INFO = 0, the leading NR-by-M part of this
array contains the input/state matrix Br of the reduced
order system.
LDB INTEGER
The leading dimension of array B. LDB >= MAX(1,N).
C (input/output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDC,N)
On entry, the leading P-by-N part of this array must
contain the original state/output matrix C.
On exit, if INFO = 0, the leading P-by-NR part of this
array contains the state/output matrix Cr of the reduced
order system.
LDC INTEGER
The leading dimension of array C. LDC >= MAX(1,P).
NS (output) INTEGER
The dimension of the ALPHA-stable subsystem.
HSV (output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (N)
If INFO = 0, the leading NS elements of HSV contain the
Hankel singular values of the ALPHA-stable part of the
original system ordered decreasingly.
HSV(1) is the Hankel norm of the ALPHA-stable subsystem.
</PRE>
<B>Tolerances</B>
<PRE>
TOL DOUBLE PRECISION
If ORDSEL = 'A', TOL contains the tolerance for
determining the order of reduced system.
For model reduction, the recommended value is
TOL = c*HNORM(As,Bs,Cs), where c is a constant in the
interval [0.00001,0.001], and HNORM(As,Bs,Cs) is the
Hankel-norm of the ALPHA-stable part of the given system
(computed in HSV(1)).
If TOL <= 0 on entry, the used default value is
TOL = NS*EPS*HNORM(As,Bs,Cs), where NS is the number of
ALPHA-stable eigenvalues of A and EPS is the machine
precision (see LAPACK Library Routine DLAMCH).
This value is appropriate to compute a minimal realization
of the ALPHA-stable part.
If ORDSEL = 'F', the value of TOL is ignored.
</PRE>
<B>Workspace</B>
<PRE>
IWORK INTEGER array, dimension (LIWORK)
LIWORK = 0, if JOB = 'B';
LIWORK = N, if JOB = 'N'.
DWORK DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDWORK)
On exit, if INFO = 0, DWORK(1) returns the optimal value
of LDWORK.
LDWORK INTEGER
The length of the array DWORK.
LDWORK >= MAX(1,N*(2*N+MAX(N,M,P)+5) + N*(N+1)/2).
For optimum performance LDWORK should be larger.
</PRE>
<B>Warning Indicator</B>
<PRE>
IWARN INTEGER
= 0: no warning;
= 1: with ORDSEL = 'F', the selected order NR is greater
than NSMIN, the sum of the order of the
ALPHA-unstable part and the order of a minimal
realization of the ALPHA-stable part of the given
system. In this case, the resulting NR is set equal
to NSMIN.
= 2: with ORDSEL = 'F', the selected order NR is less
than the order of the ALPHA-unstable part of the
given system. In this case NR is set equal to the
order of the ALPHA-unstable part.
</PRE>
<B>Error Indicator</B>
<PRE>
INFO INTEGER
= 0: successful exit;
< 0: if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal
value;
= 1: the computation of the ordered real Schur form of A
failed;
= 2: the separation of the ALPHA-stable/unstable diagonal
blocks failed because of very close eigenvalues;
= 3: the computation of Hankel singular values failed.
</PRE>
<A name="Method"><B><FONT SIZE="+1">Method</FONT></B></A>
<PRE>
Let be the following linear system
d[x(t)] = Ax(t) + Bu(t)
y(t) = Cx(t) (1)
where d[x(t)] is dx(t)/dt for a continuous-time system and x(t+1)
for a discrete-time system. The subroutine AB09MD determines for
the given system (1), the matrices of a reduced order system
d[z(t)] = Ar*z(t) + Br*u(t)
yr(t) = Cr*z(t) (2)
such that
HSV(NR+NS-N) <= INFNORM(G-Gr) <= 2*[HSV(NR+NS-N+1)+...+HSV(NS)],
where G and Gr are transfer-function matrices of the systems
(A,B,C) and (Ar,Br,Cr), respectively, and INFNORM(G) is the
infinity-norm of G.
The following procedure is used to reduce a given G:
1) Decompose additively G as
G = G1 + G2
such that G1 = (As,Bs,Cs) has only ALPHA-stable poles and
G2 = (Au,Bu,Cu) has only ALPHA-unstable poles.
2) Determine G1r, a reduced order approximation of the
ALPHA-stable part G1.
3) Assemble the reduced model Gr as
Gr = G1r + G2.
To reduce the ALPHA-stable part G1, if JOB = 'B', the square-root
Balance & Truncate method of [1] is used, and for an ALPHA-stable
continuous-time system (DICO = 'C'), the resulting reduced model
is balanced. For ALPHA-stable systems, setting TOL < 0, the
routine can be used to compute balanced minimal state-space
realizations.
If JOB = 'N', the balancing-free square-root version of the
Balance & Truncate method [2] is used to reduce the ALPHA-stable
part G1.
