6. Course Objectives The objectives of this course are to:
Help students to be familiar with the fundamental concepts of Control Systems Theory;
Foster competence in recognizing the feasibility and applicability of the design and implementation of control systems (that employ linear system) for specific application areas; and
Help students develop a sufficient understanding of control system design methodology and how it impacts system design and performance

7. Materials Covered: Stability Time Response Steady-State Errors
    Modeling in the Frequency Domain & Time Domain
    Stability
Time Response

8. Course Intended Learning Outcomes:
Upon successful completion of the course, students should be able to:
Find the steady-state error for unity & nonunity feedback systems
Use the root locus to design compensators to improve the transient response and steady-state error
Find the closed-loop frequency response given the open-loop frequency response
Use frequency response techniques to adjust the gain to meet a transient response specification
Design a state-feedback controller using pole placement for systems represented in phase-variable form to meet transient response specifications
Design PID controller

Sunday (12:00-2:00)
Open-door policy, by appointment or as posted.

10. Homework
There will be several homework assignments/computer projects during the term. These assignments will require students to program in MATLAB or a similar language. Students can seek help and work together on homework and projects, but each student must turn in his/her own write-up. 

11. Projects
Students will be required to develop an application of Control Systems to a problem of their choice. They will prepare a paper, including a survey of current literature, and make a presentation to the class.  Students should work alone and are encouraged to use material related to their research activities.  Projects must be approved by the instructor.  

12. Computer Usage
Extensive use of MATLAB or LabVIEW for computer aided analysis and simulation. The digital computers used are IBM PC Pentium compatible, these are available in the Department of Electrical Engineering. Students are required to use these tools and equipment for special project and homework development.

14. What is a Control System
A Process that needs to be controlled:
To achieve a desired output
By regulating inputs
A Controller: a mechanism, circuit or algorithm
Provides required input
For a desired output

15. What is a System?
System: Block box that takes input signal(s) and converts to output signal(s).
Continuous-Time System:

16. Closed Loop Control Open-loop control is ‘blind’ to actual output
Closed-loop control takes account of actual output and compares this to desired output

20. Control Control: Mapping sensor readings to actuators
Essentially a reactive system
Traditionally, controllers utilize plant model
A model of the system to be controlled
Given in differential equations
Control theory has proven methods using such models
Can show optimality, stability, etc.
Common term: PID (proportional-integral-derivative) control
