  • Abstract
    This note studies the optimal tracking problem for linear time-invariant single-input-multiple-output systems responding to a step reference signal. An integral square error criterion is used as the measure for tracking performance. Explicit expressions are developed for the optimal tracking error. These results characterize how nonsquare plants may pose additional difficulties for tracking, other than those resulted from nonminimum phase zeros and unstable poles.
