The properties of the degree of a matrix of rational functions are obtained in a simplified way, which enables them to be generalised to matrices whose elements are not necessarily rational functions. On the basis of these results a theory of realisations is developed, which similarly generalises the theory of state space realisations of a matrix of rational functions.
