Synopsis

Using the power of MATLAB(R) and its Control System Toolbox, this book is the ideal supplement for a digital control systems course. Students are able to use a digital computer to rapidly work a wide range of numerical problems and gain deeper insight in control design. The book is built around illustrative examples that demonstrate the steps involved in the analysis and design process. The examples are followed by a variety of problems that span the spectrum from follow-up what-if problems, to simple textbook-type reinforcement problems, to open-ended exploratory problems, and to realistic comprehensive problems. This book is part of the Bookware Companion Series.

Synopsis

A supplemental textbook for students taking a senior-level course on digital control systems who are familiar with the feedback control design of continuous-time systems. Example MATLAB scripts are provided for transfer-function and state-space models, sampling, performance measures in the time domain and frequency domain, and discrete-time control
