Go to Course Homepage Eligibility:
In order to be eligible for a second cycle course the applicant needs to fulfil the general and specific entry requirements of the programme that owns the course. (If the second cycle course is owned by a first cycle programme, second cycle entry requirements apply.) Exemption from the eligibility requirement: Applicants enrolled in a programme at Chalmers where the course is included in the study programme are exempted from fulfilling these requirements. Course specific prerequisites A basic course in automatic control including some familiarity with state space models. Aim The purpose of this course is to introduce and investigate techniques to analyze and design model based control systems. Linear state space modeling framework is applied to create a basis for different type of controller and state estimation methods. Starting from a pure state-feedback concept down to the optimal control methods, a large variety of feedback control techniques are presented with special attention on applications. Kalman filtering as an optimal way of state reconstruction is discussed in details. In this course, systems with multiple input and outputs are also analyzed from input-output point of view, through transfer function matrices. Disturbances, modeling uncertainties and robustness are also highlighted in the course. Exercises are playing an important role along the entire course. Learning outcomes (after completion of the course the student should be able to)
Design control algorithms for linear time-invariant (LTI) dynamical systems with some state-space methods presented. Become familiar with the concept of the state-space terminology. Linearize nonlinear continuous time multivariable models (MIMO). Have some knowledge on deriving discrete time forms from continuous time LTI descriptions by a suitable sampling. Understand model descriptions for linear time-invariant multivariable systems. Analyze these type of systems from the point of view controllability, observability and stability. Explain and design discrete time multivariable state feedback controllers, based on linear quadratic optimization. Explain, design, and analyze Kalman filters, and apply them for state estimation combined with controller design, i.e. LQG-control. Understand the principle of separation, analyze closed-loop optimal behavior. Become familiar with the the basics of MIMO transfer functions and with their most important analytical properties. Understand concept for frequency domain analysis and synthesis of MIMO systems. Define stability of dynamic systems under the presence of additive and multiplicative uncertainties. Provide with robustness uncertainty tests. Understand and design robust control techniques. Understand basic concept of decentralized and distributed control algorithms. Content
