It starts from the modeling problem using Laplace domain transfer functions and time domain State Variables, then shows the techniques to gain an inside view to the system structure (Kalman decomposition) and stability and to analyze the system performances both at steady state and during transients. Basic design technics are then introduced and finally the methodologies for the implementation of a control devices by a computer (i.e. as a discrete-time system) is presented. |
