This course deals with the theory on the design of digital control systems and their implementation. Major topics include: State-space system model. Discrete-time signals and systems; z-transform. Sampling: the ideal sampler, data reconstruction, quantization effects. Discrete equivalents to continuous-time transfer functions. Stability analysis: Jury’s stability test; root locus; Nyquist stability criterion. Design of digital control systems: transform techniques; stat-space techniques. Hardware and software aspects in implementation. Laboratory work will include experiments on PID controller, and sate feedback controller design of an electro-mechanical system.
