Pole placement by dynamic output feedback of minimal order

In the present contribution, an approach for calculating a dynamic output feedback of minimal order is presented. Thefeedback is of minimal order in the sense that the controller state has lowest possible dimension among all controllers placingthe poles of the closed loop system as desired. The main idea is to extend the system under consideration succesively byindependent integrators until a static compensator can be computed. This is also discussed on a computational example.
