Overview
This is a first graduate level course on control systems with an emphasis
on controller design. Pre-requisite materials assumed are generally covered
in an undergraduate level control systems e.g. ME5281 at UMN, which covers
classical SISO control, and an introduction to states space control concept.
About 2/3 of the course will deal mainly with linear systems (or linearized systems), and the rest of the class will be
concerned with some nonlinear systems.
In class and homework examples will be taken from various application domains
and research projects. We will rely heavily on MATLAB for analysis, design
and simulations of these systems.
Grading
- Homeworks:
60%
- Final: 40%
Textbooks
- Goodwin, Graebe, Salgado, "Control System Design",
Prentice Hall, 2001.
We will not follow the book strictly,
but will pick topics from the book for at home reading, examples, homeworks and discussion etc. Notes, course materials,
and papers will be handed out from time to time. Other recommended texts
for reference are:
- Glad and Ljung, ``Control Theory - Multivariable and
nonlinear methods" Taylor and Francis, 2000.
- Fairly
comprehensive, useful reference, but may approach the theory in a
different way as in class.

McMillan, 1992.
- Good introduction to
robust control ideas and loop shaping. (Out of print but available for
download)
