Catalog Course Description
This courses introduces fundamental approaches to control system design. Specific topics include: cascade compensation networks; design in frequency domain; design using the Root Locus; systems with a prefilter; design of state variable feedback systems; controllability; observability; pole placement using state feedback; Ackermann's formula; ; limitations of state variable feedback ; state observers; the design of robust control systems.
Course Learning Outcomes:
| 1. | Characterize the performance of linear control systems in terms of steady-state error and time-domain specifications |
|---|---|
| 2. | Analyze the basic objectives of closed-loop control systems, such as stability and tracking |
| 3. | Design and analyze linear controllers with realistic constraints using root-locus, state-space and frequency-domain design methods |
| 4. | Use MATLAB/Simulink in control system design |
| 5. | Convert continuous time controllers into digital ones using discretization methods and implement control algorithms using embedded controllers |
| 6. | Design experiments, test the impact of controller parameters on the response of physical systems and analyze the measured response |
