We study the problem of learning mixtures of linear dynamical systems (MLDS) from input-output data. This mixture setting allows us to leverage observations from related dynamical systems to improve the estimation of individual models. Building on spectral methods for mixtures of linear regressions, we propose a moment-based estimator that uses tensor decomposition to estimate the impulse response of component models of the mixture. The estimator improves upon existing tensor decomposition approaches for MLDS by utilizing the entire length of the observed trajectories. We provide sample complexity bounds for estimating MLDS in the presence of noise, in terms of both $N$ (number of trajectories) and $T$ (trajectory length), and demonstrate the performance of our estimator through simulations.
