ECE 515: Control System Theory & Design
Course Descriptions:
Feedback control systems emphasizing state space techniques. Basic principles, modeling, analysis, stability, structural properties, optimization, and design to meet specifications.
Announcements:
The current plan is that this course will be taught in person.The situation around Covid-related restrictions on campus can of course change at any moment, and I will keep the class updated of any developments.
