Abstract
Synchronization of coupled continuous-time linear systems is studied in a general setting. For identical neutrally-stable linear systems that are detectable from their outputs, it is shown that a linear output feedback law exists under which the coupled systems globally asymptotically synchronize under all fixed (directed) connected network topologies. An algorithm is provided to compute one such feedback law based on individual system parameters. The dual case, where individual systems are neutrally stable and stabilizable from their inputs, is also considered and parallel results are established.
