Abstract

Graphical methods for system analysis have played a central role in control theory. A recently emerging tool in this field is the Scaled Relative Graph (SRG). In this paper, we further extend its applicability by showing how the SRG of discrete-time linear-time-invariant (LTI) systems can be computed exactly from its state-space representation using linear matrix inequalities. We additionally propose a fully data-driven approach where we demonstrate how to compute the SRG exclusively from input-output data. Furthermore, we introduce a robust version of the SRG, which can be computed from noisy data trajectories and contains the SRG of the actual system.
