Abstract :
The consistency of a family of least-squares estimates of some unknown parameters of a continuous-time linear stochastic system is verified. The unknown parameters appear affinely in the linear transformations of the state and the control. The method of verification of consistency associates a family of control problems to the identification problem, and the asymptotic behavior of the solutions of a family of algebraic Riccati equations from the control problems implies a persistent excitation property for the identification problem
