Feedback Control Systems

Feedback Control Systems, 5/e This text offers a thorough analysis of the principles of classical and modern feedback control. Organizing topic coverage into three sections–linear analog control systems, linear digital control systems, and nonlinear analog control systems–helps students understand the difference between mathematical models and the physical systems that the models represent.

Features

• More than 70% of the end-of-chapter problem sets are new or revised
• Additional examples
• Additional explanation of some concepts and procedures
• More extensive use of MATLAB in examples and problem sets.
• Companion Website contains M-files
• A new Appendix that introduces control system applications of MATLAB.
• A new Appendix with answers for selected end-of-chapter problems.
• The end-of-chapter problems are grouped into sets so that each set corresponds to a section of the chapter. In each set at least one problem has its answer provided in Appendix E. Other problems in the set are based on the same concepts as the one with its answer given. This can provide immediate feedback to students in cases where the problems do not provide a second method of verification.
• A new chapter (14) on Discrete -Time Pole-Assignment and State Estimation has been added.
