Abstract

The new concept of 2D structured system is defined and characterizations of global reachability are obtained. This paper extends well known results for the 1D case, according to which a structured system (A λ, B λ) is (generically) reachable if and only if its graph is spanned by a cactus, or, equivalently, if and only if the pair (A λ, B λ) is full generically row rank and irreducible.
