ECE 602: LUMPED LINEAR SYSTEMS Prof. Jianghai Hu and Prof. Stan Żak Introduction and Overview
WHAT IS CONTROL? • Use of algorithms and feedback to affect the operation of physical objects/processes of interest to achieve desired performance Environmental Perturbations User Input Controller Actuator Sensor Physical Objects: Plant, Process, System output
CONTROL IS EVERYWHERE: ROOM TEMPERATURE CONTROL • To maintain room temperature at a pre-specified level
ROBOTIC ARM • Control the motors on the joints so that the robot hand moves along a specified trajectory "ROBOTIC ARM" by Stefan_Spasevski_Art, licensed under CC BY-ND 4. 0

PREREQUISITES • Elements of linear algebra (e. g. MATH 511 at Purdue). In particular: matrix manipulation, linear spaces • Some proficiency with linear ordinary differential equations • Undergraduate control course (e. g. ECE 382 at Purdue) • Access to Matlab (student edition is sufficient)
(http: //goremote. itap. purdue. edu) WHAT WILL YOU GET OUT OF THIS COURSE? • You will be able to construct models for dynamical systems arising in various applications • You will be able to use these models to construct various controllers • You will be able to analyze and test the way the controllers perform when applied to the systems to be controlled • You will be able to use modern standard tools such as Matlab to simulate and validate your controller design • For registered Purdue students, you can access Matlab via Purdue’s Software Remote: http: //goremote. itap. purdue. edu.
COURSE ASSESSMENTS • Two midterm exams (34%) • Final exam (33%) • Fun. Work (33%) • Ungraded quizzes
