A new notion of phase of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems was recently defined and studied, leading to new understandings in various fronts including a formulation of small phase theorem, a performance criterion named H∞ phase sector, and a sectored real lemma, etc. In this paper, we define a new notion of H2T-dissipativity and show the connection between the phase of a multivariable linear time-invariant (LTI) system and the H2T-dissipativity. The H2T-dissipativity, roughly speaking, is dissipativity restricted to the time-domain H2 space which consists of L2 signals with only positive frequency components. In addition, by exploiting the newly defined H2T- dissipativity, we also study the phase of a feedback system and provide a physical interpretation of the sectored real lemma.
