• Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present a separable identification algorithm for a multiple-input single-output (MISO) continuous-time (CT) system.

  Design/methodology/approach – This paper proposes an optimal method for the identification of MISO CT systems with unknown time delays by using the Simplified Refined Instrumental Variable method.

  Findings – Simulations results are presented to show the performance of the proposed approach in the presence of additive output measurement noise.

  Originality/value – This paper presents an optimal and robust method to separable delays and parameter identification of a MISO CT system with unknown time delays from sampled input/output data
