We prove that a T-periodic real-valued factor and two real-valued matrix exponential functions can be extracted from a state transition matrix, while, in the well-known Floquet representation theorem, a 2T-periodic real-valued factor and a real-valued matrix exponential function are extracted from the state transition matrix. Then we also proved that any T-periodic system can be transformed to a system with T-periodic real-valued trigonometric coefficients using a T-periodic real-valued coordinate transformation, while, in the well-known Lyapunov reducibility theorem, a 2T-periodic real-valued coordinate transformation is utilized to transform the given periodic system into a time-invariant system with real coefficients. This new information can be useful for designing a T-periodic control law.}, pages = {6432--6437}, title = {A Floquet-like factorization for linear periodic systems}, year = {2009} }
