Abstract

ABSTRACT: In this paper, a set of conditions for defining output functions is derived such that a system can become passive by static state feedback. A key feature of the proposed set of conditions is that several output functions that satisfy these conditions can be defined without any transformation into a normal form or any need of linearisation of the system. In essence, this paper introduces a new connection between the Lyapunov stability concept and minimum phase property which is indeed a necessary condition of feedback passivity.
