Faculty: Engineering
Last listed: 1994–95

No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1973–74 to 1994–95; the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.

Review of multivariable state space methods with emphasis on control applications. Performance indices and optimal control. Continuous and discrete time state feedback control of linear systems. Systems with inaccessible states. Stability analysis. Prereq: E&CE 380, 446 1Open lab

As printed in the 1990–91 to 1994–95 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original. Later calendars (1995–96 on) aren’t on uwloo.

Titled Control Systems 2 499A, 499B Project.

Time and frequency domain methods for multivariable processes. Controllability. Observability. Observers. Continuous and discrete time systems..Indices of performance. Simple dynamic opti- ‘mization. Stability. Direct digital control.

An engineering assignment requiring the student to demonstrate initiative and assume responsibility. The student will select a project at the end of the 3B term from an approved list prepared by the Department. A short progress report at the end of the 4A term:and a full report at the end of the 4B term are required.
