✦ Synopsis

An algorithm is derived for converting a discrete state-space model to an equivalent continuous form. Both approximate and exact solutions are presented. A new discrete model is also derived, for which the continuous design will be valid. The principles are illustrated using an example of optimal control, and the discrete and continuous designs are compared• These techniques have particular relevance for computer aided design of feedback control systems.
