A performance index connecting the correlation measures of feedback errors of two unity feedback systems is suggested for obtaining the optimum simplified models of large, linear, time-invariant systems. To ensure the suitability of the index a simplification procedure by eliminating the remote poles in sequence is adopted. The examples indicate that the index is a useful criterion for optimum reduction of large dynamic systems.
