Learning outcomes
The course aims to acquaint the student with the design methods of discrete-time and discrete-time controllers for single-input single-output linear systems.
Course contents
Introduction to synthesis methods for continuous-time systems. Root locus as a tool for analysis and synthesis. Sensitivity functions and loop shaping in the frequency domain. Synthesis methods with frequency-shaped regulators and standard regulators. Advanced control structures for linear systems.
Introduction to discrete-time systems and Z-transform. Sampling theory. Shannon theorem. Choice of sampling time in a control system. Anti aliasing filters. Discretization of continuous-time controllers. Reconstruction theory and zero-order hold.
Introduction to Matlab/Simulink as a tool for the simulation of dynamic systems and the synthesis of control systems. Outline of numerical methods for simulation. Procedure for the design and validation of control systems: modelling and system analysis, synthesis of a continuous-time controller, controller discretization and introduction to non-idealities of digital processing systems. Real case studies.
