The structure of the Smith-MacMillan form of a rational matrix T(s) inside a region P=ω∪{∞} (where ω is asymmetric with respect to the real axis subset of the finite complex plane C) is determined. Algorithmic procedures based on elementary row and column operations over the euclidean ring R P(s) consisting of all rational functions with no poles in P are given. Coprimeness in P of a pair of rational matrices is studied in detail. These results lead to constructive procedures for determining the coprime in P matrix fraction descriptions of T(a).
