SEVERAL DISSIPATIVITY AND PASSIVITY IMPLICATIONS IN THE LINEAR DISCRETE-TIME SETTING ´ ´ EVA MARIA NAVARRO-LOPEZ Received 22 September 2004 and in revised form 27 March 2005 Some important features and implications of dissipativity and passivity properties in the discrete-time setting are collected in this paper. These properties are mainly referred to as the stability analysis (feedback stability systems and study of the zero dynamics), the relative degree, the feedback passivity property, and the preservation of passivity under feedback and parallel interconnections. Frequency-domain characteristics are exploited to show some of these properties. The main contribution is the proposal of necessary and sufficient conditions in order to render a multiple-input multiple-output linear discrete- time invariant system passive by means of a static-state feedback and using the properties of the relative degree and zero dynamics of the system. A discrete-time model for the DC- to-DC buck converter is used as an example to illustrate the passivation scheme proposed. In addition, dissipativity frequency-domain properties are related to some feedback sta- bility criteria. 1. Introduction Dissipativity and its particular case of passivity were born from the observation of phys- ical systems behaviour. They are the formalization of physical energy processes. Passivity ideas emerged in the circuit theory field, from the phenomenon of dissipation of energy across resistors. The abstraction of the connections between input-output behaviour, in- ternal system description, and properties of energy functions is the basis for dissipative systems. Precisely, due to the fact that dissipativity merges all these concepts, it acts as a powerful tool for analyzing systems behaviour. The study of the behaviour of a system in terms of the energy it can store or dissipate has an extraordinary value, since it gives a rather physical and
