A new method for full-rank state-feedback pole assignment is introduced. A particular advantage of this
method is that no freedom in the design parameters is lost. Hence, further design problems such as robust pole assignment in
uncertain systems are alleviated. An application of this feature is shown for a particular linear model of the F16 aircraft. The
connections between state-feedback and several concepts in the literature such as incomplete input feedback, incomplete
state-feedback, output-feedback, and incomplete pole assignment are also given.
