| Course Objectives | This course aims to introduce design and implementation of control systems which are based on the use of computers. The course describes issues that are related to discrete time and their relevance to continuous time. Students equipped with knowledge on designing continuous time control systems will study discretization of systems and controllers, implementation of closed-loop control, analysis and interpretation of results. |
