In control systems
engineering, the
5 stability of a system
(modeled in the form
of Transfer Function)
is determined by the
poles of the system in
3 the right or left hand
sides. When the model
is represented using
State Space approach,
the eigen values of the
(A) state matrix are
equivalent to the poles
in the Transfer
Function approach.

Let's consider a
discrete-time state
7 space model (the
derivation for a
coninuous-time
system is completely
analogous):
q[n + 1] = Aq
T
y[n] = c q
zQ(z) = AQ(z
T
Y (z) = c Q(z

Q(z) = (zI − A
Y (z)
H (z) = =
X(z)
The matrix
(zI − A)
−1
can be
written as
−1
(zI − A) =
d
where B is the
adjugate matrix of
(zI − A) whose
elements are
polynomials in z.
is the characteristic
polynomial of A the
roots of which are the
eigenvalues of A .
Since the roots of the
denominator of H (z)
are the system's poles,
the eigenvalues of A
and the poles of H (z)
are equivalent.
