Digital Control Applications Illustrated with MATLAB® covers the modeling, analysis, and design of linear discrete control systems. Illustrating all topics using the micro-computer implementation of digital controllers aided by MATLAB®, Simulink®, and FEEDBACK<<®, this practical text:
Digital Control Applications Illustrated with MATLAB® is an ideal textbook for digital control courses at the advanced undergraduate and graduate level.
"This book is an asset for practicing controls engineers as well as students of advanced control systems courses. Books on this topic have been usually quite theoretically oriented, and a common complaint of the students is that they do not get a practical flavor after going through a course, or even multiple courses. The author brings a fresh approach, backed up by decades of teaching and professional experience, which is oriented toward practical application. I look forward to having this book on my shelf."
—Amit Patra, Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur
"The author provides a mathematically detailed yet accessible presentation of topics in digital control theory. After introducing digital control systems and reviewing the modeling and performance of discrete systems, several chapters are dedicated to different design methods. These methods include discrete equivalent, direct, state-variable feedback, Lyapunov, and optimal. Throughout the book, the emphasis is on application of the theory rather than on theorems and abstract mathematics."
—Patricia Mellodge, University of Hartford, Connecticut, USA
"This book has an excellent flow of material for teaching design of digital control or computer control of dynamic systems. In particular, and following the well-organized design chapters, the microprocessor/computer implementation hardware and software aspects in chapter 9 are very valuable, well presented, and certainly well appreciated in this book. Chapters 1 through 4 provide clear and concise presentation of prerequisite material/knowledge for a digital control system design course, and could be very well appreciated in a previous senior-level control design course. The design chapters 5 through 8 progress effectively with the right sequence of techniques, starting with design by digital equivalents, followed by transformed domain techniques, and then moving into the time domain state space design including state estimators both full order and reduced order. Using MATLAB® software and simulations for examples and case studies provides students with valuable practice opportunities for the material presented throughout the book. This fits exactly in how I teach my first in a two-graduate-course sequence 'Computer Control of Dynamic Systems' here at California State University, Chico (the second is 'Adaptive Control Systems')."
