Abstract :
A method is presented to analyze the testability of both linear and nonlinear analog systems. It combines a rank-test algorithm with statistical methods. The algorithm finds sets of inseparable parameters and determines whether it is possible to calculate a certain parameter with efficient accuracy. It also determines a subset of appropriate measurements if redundant measurements are present
