Credits: 3
Introduction to techniques for the analysis and design of linear control systems and implementation of control systems using digital technology. Topics include linearization, solution of linear equations, z-transforms and Laplace transforms, design of linear controllers, optimal control, and digital implementation of control designs. Students will use MATLAB for the solution of problems and the design of control systems.
