ECS4333

Advanced control systems

C S Berger and K P Dabke

3 points * 16 lectures, 9 laboratory hours * Second semester * Clayton * Prerequisites: ECS4332, ECS3312

Objectives The student is expected to be able to obtain mathematical plant models from measured input/output data and develop the ability to design adaptive controllers and apply advanced methods of analysing the stability behaviour of non-linear plant.

Synopsis Identification methods: recursive least squares, instrument variables and generalised least squares. Adaptive control: minimum variance, pole-placement, predictive control. Non-linear systems: stability, Lyapunov stability functions, Popov stability criterion.

Assessment Assignments/Laboratory work: 100%
