  • Abstract
    This correspondence deals with terminal sensitivity of linear dynamical systems. Specifically, it is shown here that, for a class of linear time invariant open-loop systems, it is not possible to achieve the insensitivity of terminal conditions when the number of plant-parameters is not smaller than the number of control variables.
