This paper addresses a structural design problem in control systems, andexplicitly takes into consideration the possible application to large-scalesystems. More precisely, we aim to determine and characterize the minimumnumber of manipulated state variables ensuring structural controllability ofswitched linear continuous-time systems. Towards this goal, we provide a newnecessary and sufficient condition that leverages both graph-theoretic andalgebraic properties required to ensure feasibility of the solutions. With thisnew condition, we show that a solution can be determined by an efficientprocedure, i.e., polynomial in the number of state variables. In addition, wealso discuss the switching signal properties that ensure structuralcontrollability and the computational complexity of determining thesesequences. In particular, we show that determining the minimum number of modesthat a switching signal requires to ensure structural controllability isNP-hard.
