Highly maneuverable aircraft, like this X-29, often require sophisticated control systems to fly stably. (Photo courtesy of NASA Dryden Flight Research Center Photo Collection.)
Course Description
This course will teach fundamentals of control design and analysis using state-space methods. This includes both the practical and theoretical aspects of the topic. By the end of the course, you should be able to design controllers using state-space methods and evaluate whether these controllers are robust to some types of modeling errors and nonlinearities. You will learn to:
- Design controllers using state-space methods and analyze using classical tools.
- Understand impact of implementation issues (nonlinearity, delay).
- Indicate the robustness of your control design.
- Linearize a nonlinear system, and analyze stability.
