Control Theory (TSRT09)
Objective:
The course will provide methodological tools for understanding the basic properties of multivariable and nonlinear control system subject to disturbances. It also aims to teach the most common feedback synthesis methods and the related computer tools.
Course content:
- Multivariable (MIMO = Multi Input Multi Output) systems. Properties and analysis methods.
- Fundamental limitations on what performances can be achieved.
- Regulator synthesis. Systematic methods based on optimization. Regulator sensitivity and robstness performances.
- Nonlinearities. Analysis methods and regulator design.
Organization:
- Lectures: 12
- Exercises: 12 (3 in computer room)
- Laboratories: 3 (compulsory)
- Exam: 4 hours (in computer room)
