Course description
It is known that control engineering plays a very important role in real-world applications. This course deals with basic knowledge in control engineering with both classic and modern control (focusing on the latter). We will learn system representation (modeling), transfer function, state solution (various response), frequency based analysis and design, system stability, controllability and observability, state feedback, observer and optimal control, etc.
Purpose of class
Obtain fundamental knowledge about classic and modern control, and understand the relation between them. Master various analysis and design tool in control engineering, and use MATLAB/simulink in numerical simulation.
Goals and objectives
  1. Understand transfer function and state space representation, and obtain various system responses.
  2. Understand transfer function based analysis and design
  3. Understand state space representation based analysis and design
