Abstract

The question of stabilizing unity feedback linear systems through the employment of proper feedforward compensators is important in many aspects of control theory. Although it appears to be well-known that a large class of linear systems, namely those which might be termed "closed-loop stabilizable," can be so stabilized, it is difficult to find a definitive reference which establishes this observation in a straightforward and simple manner. This note attempts to remedy this situation by presenting a new procedure for designing appropriate, proper, feedforward compensators which not only stabilize, but also arbitrarily reposition all of the unstable poles of closed-loop stabilizable systems.
