“…Under some input constraints, the collection of all possible states to which the system can be transferred from the origin is referred to as the reachable set. The bounding of reachable states was first considered for linear systems in the late 1960s in the context of state estimation and it has later received a lot of attention in parameter estimation (see [8] and references therein). For linear systems, an ellipsoidal bound of the reachable set is often used to contain all the reachable states under zero initial conditions [5], [11], [12], [17], [18], [21], [23], [27], [28].…”
