From time-domain data to low-dimensional structured models

摘要: We present a framework for constructing a structured realization of a linear time-invariant dynamical system solely from a discrete sampling of an input and output trajectory of the system. We estimate the transfer function of the original model at selected frequencies using a modification of the empirical transfer function estimation that was recently presented in [Peherstorfer, Gugercin, Willcox, SIAM J. Sci. Comput., 39(5):2152-2178, 2017]. Our realization interpolates the transfer function estimates and can be seen as a generalization of the Loewner framework to structured systems. We demonstrate the presented framework by means of a delay example.
