Feedback Control and Dynamic Systems - ELEC324

Topics covered in this unit include: - Overview of mathematical models of linear systems (differential equations, transfer function, state space and canonical forms). - Analysis and performance of single-input single-output feedback systems – zero-input response, zero-state response, transfer function, transient response (rise time, overshoot, settling time), proportional-integral-derivative (PID) compensation, lead-lag compensation). - Modern control-system analysis and design methods – controllability, observability, cost functions, optimal control, optimal observer and state estimation, multiple-input multiple-output systems). - Introduction to analysis and design of digital control systems – discrete approximations of continuous systems, transform techniques, state-space methods). - Applications of control in electronic systems (eg, feedback amplifiers, phase-locked loops) and servo-control systems (eg, for antenna pointing and satellite tracking). - Use of MATLAB for control-system analysis and design.
