Abstract :
It is shown that an unstable nonminimal continuous (discrete) realization (A, B, C) can be transformed via a similarity transformation into a balanced one if and only if the product of the controllability, observability Gramians is similar to a real diagonal matrix Λ. If, in addition, the eigenvalues of A , say λ, satisfy the relation λi+λ j≠0(λiλj≠1) then the matrix Λ will always be positive semidefinite, and a balanced realization with its minimal part in the internally balanced form can always be obtained
