102 Proof of realization

Let the transfer function be T(s)=p(s)/q(s) where p(s)=j=0najsj and q(s)=k=0mbksk are polynomials with bm=1. Consider the differential equation

y=j=0najdjudtj

which has Laplace transform

Y(s)=p(s)U(s).

Also, we can realise the proper rational function 1/q(s) as the transfer function of a SISO system, as in Proposition 57. By combining these in series, we realise a system with transfer function T(s)=p(s)/q(s).
