Learning outcomes
Students who pass the course should be able to
- determine poles and zeros of multivariable dynamic models represented in state space form and as transfer functions
- analyse non-linear control systems
- analyse given specifications for a control system and decide if these can be fulfiled, and if the control problem is hard or not
- design controllers for linear multivariable systems based on internal model control, optimisation of H-2 and H-infinity criteria, and robust control
- solve simpler optimal control problems
Content
Profound mathematical description of linear multivariable systems. Controller synthesis. Sensitivity and robustness for multivariable systems. Theoretical limitations of performance. Robust loop shaping. Analysis of control systems with simple nonlinearities. Optimal control.
