Aims
This module teaches students to design and analyse complex and modern dynamic system modelling and control with MATLAB/Simulink simulation demonstrations. It involves the understanding and using of analytical techniques, interpretation of tasks between customers and designers, and computational experiments as applied to classical and modern dynamic system models.
Students will develop a robust knowledge and understanding in classical, modern, and digital control system analysis and design as expected of an electronics engineer. Students will use industry standard software to develop and evaluate conceptual and analytical models.
Learning Outcomes
1.
Demonstrate an understanding of the principles of closed-loop control, transfer function models, stability and time response analysis, for continuous and discrete domain systems.
2.
Model physical systems and use mathematical tools such as Laplace and simple Z transforms, transfer functions and block diagrams to analyse/design simple single input/output control systems.
3.
Understand pole-zero diagrams and assess stability
4.
Specify systems in terms of time/frequency and other performance criteria, and design systems to specifications
