  • Abstract
    Estimates of ε-entropy and ε-dimension in the Kolmogorov sense are obtained for a class of causal, linear, time-invariant, continuous-time systems under the assumptions that impulse responses, satisfy an exponential order condition |f(t)| \\leq Ce ^{-at} , and frequency responses satisfy an attenuation condition |F(j\\omega )|\\leq K\\omega ^{-1} . The dependence of ε-entropy and ε-dimension on the accuracy ε is characterized by order, type, and power indexes. Similar results for the discrete-time case are reviewed and compared.
