Where A is a square matrix and the dimensions of B and C are consistent with that of A. The problem is to estimate a certain subset of the matrix elements [see pdf for notation], [see pdf for notation] and [see pdf for notation] from discrete observations of the input vector u(t) and the
output vector y(t). When instantaneous mixing is assumed the analogous equations (1.1) are replaced by

An intermediate problem is that of identifying the respective impulse response matrix i. e the matrix [see pdf for notation].
