 General Information  

This is a final year undergraduate course on advanced control systems. This course builds upon an undergraduate course on control engineering, or signal, systems and control, covering classical system analysis and design.  The student will be introduced to the state-space design of control systems and the analysis and design of nonlinear control systems.

  • all class info, lecture notes, and lab manuals will be posted on this webpage.

  • course requirements: laboratory sessions, quizzes and final exam.

  • prerequisites

    • EE2010 Systems and Control

    • exposure to linear algebra, Laplace transform, differential equations recommended

    • exposure to Matlab will also be helpful
