Learning outcomes
In this course the most advanced methodology and technology aspects related to automation systems will be presented by internationally qualified experts in the field. The topic will change every year according to the international trend of the automation field.
Course contents
1. Introduction: review of classical frequency-domain methods
2. LTI systems in transformed domains
* signal and system spaces, L2-stability
* MIMO poles and zeros
* coprime factorization over H-inf
3. Internal stability of feedback systems
* Small Gain and Passivity results
* Youla--Kučera parametrization of stabilizing controllers
4. Basic frequency-domain weighted design philosophy
* weighted / mixed sensitivity H-inf problems
* robust stability
* balanced sensitivity (H-inf loop shaping)
5. H2 and H-inf standard problems
* linear-fractional transformations
* algebraic Riccati equations
* state-space solutions (open-loop and closed-loop designs)
6. Extensions to intermittent sampled-data or delay systems (if time permits)
