Single module identifiability in linear dynamic networks with partial excitation and measurement

Identifiability of a single module in a network of transfer functions is determined by whether a particular transfer function in the network can be uniquely distinguished within a network model set, on the basis of data. Whereas previous research has focused on the situations that all network signals are either excited or measured, we develop...

Signal selection for local module identification in linear dynamic networks: A graphical approach

In a dynamic network of interconnected transfer functions, it is not necessary to use all the node signals for estimating a local transfer function. Given the network topology, detailed conditions are available for selecting inputs and outputs in a (MIMO) predictor model that warrants consistent and minimum variance estimation of a target...
