A Frequency-Limited H2 Model Approximation Method with Application to a Medium-Scale Flexible Aircraft

In this paper, the problem of approximating a medium-scale MIMO LTI dynamical system over a bounded frequency range is addressed. A new method based on the SVD-Tangential model order reduction framework is proposed. Grounded on the frequency-limited gramians defined in [5], the contribution of this paper is to propose a frequency-limited iterative SVD-Tangential interpolation algorithm (FL-ISTIA) to achieve frequency-limited model approximation without involving weighting filters. The efficiency of the approach is addressed both on standard benchmark and on an industrial flexible aircraft model
