Abstract: We consider the problem of approximating a $p\times m$ rational transfer function $H(s)$ of high degree by another $p\times m$ rational transfer function $\hat{H}(s)$ of much smaller degree. We derive the gradients of the $H_2$-norm of the approximation error and show how stationary points can be described via tangential interpolation.

Keywords: Multivariable systems, model reduction, optimal H2 approximation, tangential interpolation.
