This course introduces you to the theories and tools in advanced control systems. You will learn about the concept of controllers such as PID and pole-assignment controllers which are widely used in the process and manufacturing industries. The state-space design methods including state feedback and state observer are also introduced in the later part of this course.
Topics that are covered in this course include:

Section A: Design and Analysis for Single Input and Single Output Systems
Introduction to mathematical modelling and control systems; Understanding PID controller design and implementation issues; Understanding pole-assignment controller design methods; Understanding frequency response analysis.
Section B: State space design methods.
Control system design using state space models: Background to state space design methods. State feedback controller design. Observer design. State estimate feedback control system design.
