EL3210 Multivariable Feedback Control
8 credits, FALL TERM 2017
Course objective
The course will give an introduction to the design and analysis of linear multivariable
control systems. The focus is on inherent limitations
in feedback systems and on stability and performance in the presence
of uncertainty. Important topics include: classic frequency domain
methods extended to multivariable systems, directionality in MIMO systems,
input-output controllability, Youla parametrization, uncertainty descriptions, gap metrics, linear fractional
transformations, robustness analysis including the structured singular value
mu, H2- and H-infty controller synthesis, H-infty loop shaping, mu-synthesis,
integral quadratic constraints, linear matrix inequalities, control structure design
Prerequisites
Undergraduate course in
classic SISO control, elementary background in matrices and linear algebra.
An introductory course in multivariable control is recommended, but not a requirement.
Schedule
Course will be given next time in the fall term 2019.
