Course description and aims

This course covers the fundamentals of linear control theory based on state equations, and shows how to analyze systems and how to design controllers for them. In the system analysis, stability, controllability and observability are introduced. In the controller design, state feedback controllers (pole assignment and optimal control), observers and servo controllers are introduced.

The state equation is one of the system descriptions, and many kinds of systems can be described in state equations, for example, mechanical, electrical, chemical and economical systems. This course enables students to derive mathematical models of real systems, and to design controllers for them.

Student learning outcomes

At the end of this course, students will be able to:
1) Analyze the stability, controllability and observability of the system.
2) Design stabilizing controllers.
