In this paper a CAD procedure for the analysis and design of bilinear MIMO control systems is presented. Algorithms are developed for the solution of the bilinear system state-space equations, based on the fact that the bilinear system can be treated as a linear one at every sampling instant. Stability is examined by means of suitable signal and induced system norms. Finally, a bilinear system is analysed and designed, using the developed CAD procedure.
