Department of Control Engineering

Synopsis:

The aim of the subject is to present problems of dynamic systems control. Simple methods of feedback systems analysis and synthesis will be presented. Also motivation examples of modern methods will be given. The students will be acquainted with methods of systems description and modeling, simulation tools, basic linear system analysis, simple controller synthesis and verification. The aim of the subject is to motivate the students to deeper studies of cybernetics and control.
