The solvability condition of the problem is derived in terms of an explicit inequality. It is also discovered that for a multivariable plant, there exists a very simple one-to-one correspondence between the sensitivity problem for r > 1 and the complementary sensitivity problem for the same r. Namely, a solution to either of the two problems can be obtained simply by multiplying a solution to the other problem by some certain constant. This indicates that sensitivity and complementary sensitivity have the same minimum for a plant if either minimum is greater than 1.6en19900025549356
