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...

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...
