Irreducible canonical realizations from external data sequences

Abstract
A direct procedure for obtaining a minimal realization of a linear multivariable time-invariant discrete system is described, by considering input/output data sequences as initial characterization. The main feature of the procedure is to lead to a well-defined canonical form of the state-space matrix triple with a remarkable saving of computing effort An example is given in order to display the mechanization of this approach
