Abstract
This article presents a new indirect identification method for continuous-time systems able to resolve the problem of fast sampling. To do this, a Subspace IDentification Down-Sampling (SIDDS) approach that takes into consideration the intermediate sampling instants of the input signal is proposed. This is done by partitioning the data set into m subsets, where m is the downsampling factor. Then, the discrete-time model is identified using a based subspace identification discrete-time algorithm where the data subsets are fused into a single one. Using the algebraic properties of the system, some of the parameters of the continuous-time model are directly estimated. A procedure that secures a prescribed number of zeros for the continuous-time model is used during the estimation process. The algorithm's performance is illustrated through an example of fast sampling, where its performance is compared with the direct methods implemented in Contsid.

Abstract
The class of subspace system identification algorithms is used here to derive new identification algorithms for 2-D causal, recursive, and separable-in-denominator (CRSD) state space systems in the Roesser form. The algorithms take a known deterministic input-output pair of 2-D signals and compute the system order (n) and system parameter matrices {A, B, C, D}. Since the CRSD model can be treated as two 1-D systems, the proposed algorithms first separate the vertical component from the state and output equations and then formulate a set of 1-D horizontal subspace equations. The solution to the horizontal subproblem contains all the information necessary to compute (n) and {A, B, C, D}. Four algorithms are presented for the identification of CRSD models directly from input-output data: an intersection algorithm, (N4SID), (MOESP), and (CCA). The intersection algorithm is distinguished from the rest in that it computes the state sequences, as well as the system parameters, whereas N4SID, MOESP, and CCA differ primarily in the way they compute the system parameter matrices {A1, C1}. The advantage of the intersection algorithm is that the identified model is in balanced coordinates, thus ideally suited for 2-D model reduction. However, it is computationally more expensive than the other algorithms. A comparison of all algorithms is presented.
