Abstract :
The problem of transforming a multi-input time-variable system to a canonical form is considered in this correspondence. The necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of the nonsingular transformation is stated and proved. The canonical form, when restricted to time-invariant systems, is the same as the one given in [3]. The advantages of the present method over [3] are explained.
