Identification of Port-Hamiltonian Systems from Frequency Response Data

Abstract: In this paper, we study the identification problem of a passive system from tangential interpolation data. We present a simple construction approach based on the Mayo-Antoulas generalized realization theory that automatically yields a port-Hamiltonian realization for every strictly passive system with simple spectral zeros. Furthermore, we discuss the construction of a frequency-limited port-Hamiltonian realization. We illustrate the proposed method by means of several examples.
