Optimalq-Markov COVER for finite wordlength implementation

Abstract

The existingq-Markov COVER realization theory does not take into account the problems of arithmetic errors due to both the quantization of states and coefficients of the reduced-order model. Allq-Markov COVERs allow some freedom in the choice of parameters. In this paper we exploit this freedom in the existing theory to optimize the models with respect to these finite wordlength effects.
