The parameter sensitivity is defined as an integral measure of the matrix impulse response with respect to the coefficients. A state space approach is used to find a realization of impulse response that minimizes a sensitivity measure.</p></abstract><kwd-group><label>Keywords</label><kwd>multivariable systems</kwd><kwd>sensitivity analysis</kwd><kwd>state space</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front></article>
