Course Information

Catalog Course Description
Gives the fundamental theory of linear dynamical systems in both continuous and discrete time. The course covers state- space representations, vector spaces, linear operators, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, functions of vectors and matrices, solutions to state equations, stability, controllability, observability, realization theory, feedback and observers.
Course Learning Outcomes:
1. After taking this course, a successful graduate student must have a solid background in linear system theory which can be applied to many engineering problems such as control, signal processing, vision and robotics. In particular, students should be able to: 1. Classify systems and develop Input/Output and State-Space representations for systems 2. Use vector space ideas, matrices and their functions 3. Check controllability and the observability of a linear system 4. Check the external and the internal stability of a system 5. Design linear state feedback control 6. Estimate states of a dynamical system using various observers
Course Objective
This course is intended for first year graduate students to present the fundamental concepts of the linear systems theory.
