Spring 2025 Lecture Distance Learning Upper DivisionThe course introduces feedback computer controlled systems, the components of digital control systems, and system models on the z-domain (z-transfer functions) and on the time domain (state variable representations). The objectives for system design and evaluation of system performance are considered. Various discrete-time controllers are designed including PID-controllers, state and output feedback controllers, and reconstruction of states using observers. The systems with the designated controllers are tested by simulations.
Learning Outcomes1Understand digital feedback control systems.
2Know to use controller design techniques to make the system behavior satisfy specified design objectives.
3Evaluate and test the system performance using digital simulations.
