In this work, combined matrices of tridiagonal Toeplitz matrices are studied. The combined matrix is known as the Relative Gain Array in control theory. In particular, given a real tridiagonal Toeplitz matrix of order n, the characterization of its combined matrix as a bisymmetric and doubly quasi-stochastic matrix is studied. Furthermore, this paper addresses the inverse problem, that is, given a bisymmetric, doubly quasi-stochastic tridiagonal Jacobi matrix U of order n, determine under what conditions there exists a real tridiagonal Toeplitz matrix A such that its combined matrix is U.
