TLDR
This paper shows that a necessary and sufficient condition on the plant for the existence of a compensator that makes the closed loop impulse response sign invariant is that there be no real, positive, nonminimum phase plant zeros.
Abstract
In this paper, we consider the problem of designing controllers for discrete-time linear time-invariant (LTI) plants that render the closed-loop impulse response nonnegative. Such systems have a non-undershooting and non-overshooting step response. We first show that the impulse response of any discrete-time LTI system changes sign at least "r" times if it has "r" real, positive zeros outside a circular disk centered at the origin and containing all its poles. We then show that a necessary and sufficient condition on the plant for the existence of a compensator that makes the closed loop impulse response sign invariant is that there be no real, positive, nonminimum phase plant zeros. Finally, we show, by construction, how such a compensator may be synthesized when the plant does satisfy the existence condition.
