Course Objective

The objective of the course is to provide the students with advanced tools in modeling, analysis and design for linear feedback control systems.. The analysis and synthesis in this course includes stability of open-loop and closed-loop systems, time responses and frequency responses of low order systems.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   To be able to generalise the mathematical representations of physical systems
2   To be able to apply principles of feedback system design according to time domain specifications
3   To be able to analyze frequency domain characteristics of closed loop control systems
4   To be able to design controllers using root locus technique and Bode design method
5   To be able develop state space controllers using computer tools.

Assessment Criteria

Each student are required to carry out the analysis and design methods given in the lectures on the given physical system model. Students present their results and evaluate them in context of the every previous week. The theoretical background given in the lectures are evaluated via one midterm and one final exam. Students are to prepare a term paper which presents their implementation of the theoretical background on the given system.
