Objectives:
This course is designed to develop
basic understanding of modern control theory including state-space model and
robustness issues in both frequency domain and time domain. There are two
major topics. The first is state-space representation of SISO systems and
simple control design. The second topic is modeling of uncertainties and
control design in terms of transfer functions. The goal is to arouse the
students' interests in the fields of Systems and Controls and to provide a
solid background for engineering applications and for more advanced topics.
Homeworks and Tests:
- Three
exams @ 20% each
- Homeworks @ 20% total
- Laboratory
@ 20% total
An explanation of the method used
to determine the course grade:
- A
>=90; 90 > B >=80; 80 > C >=70; 70 > D >=60; 60
> F
- If
warranted, a curve may be introduced at the discretion of the
instructor.
- Per
the UCF Golden Rule, a Z designation may be associated with a student’s
grade for any dishonest practices discovered during class and/or lab.
Tentative
dates for all tests and other major components of course work:
- Mid-terms
(2nd week of February, 3rd week of March)
- Final
(See schedule)
- Assignments
(assigned during the semester with due date for each posted on the
course webpage and announced in class)
Homework
collection policy:
Homework will be given about once each week and would be due a week after
that. On the due day, homework will be due at the beginning of class. No late
submissions allowed unless there is a verifiable emergency or instructor
permission has been obtained in advance. Assignments may require use of
MATLAB.
Contact
information for the course instructor: I have an open door policy. If I am available and
there are no urgent deadlines, I will see you. However, you may have to track
me down to one of my offices. Best way to reach me is on email, I respond very
quickly.
