4 points + 26 lectures + 26 hours of laboratory and problem classes + First semester + Clayton + Prerequisites: ECE2601, MAT2901, MAT2902, ECE2903

Synopsis: Modelling of simple dynamic systems. Motivation for control systems. Frequency-response: Nyquist plots; Nyquist stability criterion; gain and phase margins; Bode plots; lead-,lag-, lead-lag, and PID dynamic compensation; estimation of transfer function from frequency-response data. Robustness. State-space representation of dynamical systems; controller, observer and modal canonical forms; analysis of state equations, state-transition matrix; controllability and observability; state-feedback control-law design; state estimator design; compensator design, feedback of estimated state, separation principle.

Assessment: Examination (3 hours): 80% + Continual assessment and laboratory work: 20%
