Extended balancing of continuous LTI systems: a structure-preserving approach

In this paper, we treat extended balancing for continuous-time linear time-invariant systems, and we address the problem of structure-preserving model reduction of the subclass of port-Hamiltonian systems. We establish sufficient conditions to ensure that the reduced-order model preserves a port-Hamiltonian structure. Moreover, we show that the use of extended Gramians can be exploited to get a small error bound and, possibly, to preserve a physical interpretation for the reduced-order model.
