Abstract

Descriptor positive continuous-time linear system with transfer matrices having only positive coefficients are analyzed. It is shown that if the positive descriptor system is asymptotically stable then its transfer matrix has only positive coefficients. The realization problem for the class of descriptor positive systems is formulated and solved. Considerations are illustrated by numerical examples.
