State-space controllability rank calculator

Calculate controllability rank and state dimension with your own figures.

Your numbers

Use the units shown. Results update as you change valid inputs.

Use controllability rank and state dimension to compare changes to your inputs. The method and limits below explain the scope.

Calculation method

Calculation method

Controllability rank (count)

Form [B,AB,...,A^(n−1)B]; Gaussian elimination with supplied absolute pivot tolerance; ratio of retained elimination pivots is a scale diagnostic, not a condition number.

State dimension (count)

Form [B,AB,...,A^(n−1)B]; Gaussian elimination with supplied absolute pivot tolerance; ratio of retained elimination pivots is a scale diagnostic, not a condition number.

Gaussian pivot-scale ratio diagnostic

Form [B,AB,...,A^(n−1)B]; Gaussian elimination with supplied absolute pivot tolerance; ratio of retained elimination pivots is a scale diagnostic, not a condition number.

Symbols and units
a
State matrix A
b
Input matrix B
c
Absolute pivot tolerance

Use the units shown. A list keeps the order in which you enter its values. The symbol ^ means “raised to the power of”.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • User-supplied measurements and assumptions; Form [B,AB,...,A^(n−1)B]; Gaussian elimination with supplied absolute pivot tolerance; ratio of retained elimination pivots is a scale diagnostic, not a condition number. Supported limits: Finite numeric values bounded to 1e9 magnitude; lists and tables contain 1–100 records unless a stricter bound is stated. Inputs use the units shown. Lists explicitly paired by a method must have matching lengths; independent polynomial coefficient vectors may differ. Respect stated physical, interpolation, policy and computational domain limits.
