ELEC324: Feedback Control and Dynamic Systems
This unit includes: an introduction to feedback—adjusting the input of a system by comparing the desired output to the actual output; examples of continuous and discrete feedback systems in telecommunications, computing and electronics; system dynamics; stability and performance—why a systematic approach to feedback is required; frequency-domain analysis—Laplace transforms, Z transforms, Nyquist theorem and Bode plots; poles and stability; control-system design; state-space description of dynamic systems and analogy to state machines, canonical state-space descriptions, state-space control design using pole placement; and Robustness issues.
