Aims
To extend concepts of digital control theory into system identification, controller design and self-tuning control techniques for single-input, single-output systems.
Learning Outcomes
1.
Comprehensively apply the theory of sampled-data systems to complex control problems
2.
Apply high level system identification techniques and critically analyse their operation
3.
Design and implement digital and self-tuning controllers
4.
Judiciously apply proprietary computer software for discrete-time identification and controller design
Module Content
Outline Syllabus:
Discrete-time systems: sampling and reconstruction, open loop and closed loop discrete time analysis, system time response characteristics, poles and zeros, stability analysis techniques. System identification: ARX/ARMAX models, least squares, model validation, recursive parameter estimation algorithms (e.g. RLS, ELS), implementation Digital control: control system specifications, design techniques (e.g. discretisation, direct design), ringing poles, self-tuning control algorithms (e.g. pole assignment, minimum variance, optimal) and operation. Computer packages will be used to gain experience in applying and simulating techniques.
