Description

This course introduces the design of feedback control systems as applied to a variety of air and spacecraft systems.

Topics include the properties and advantages of feedback systems, time-domain and frequency-domain performance measures, stability and degree of stability, the Root locus method, Nyquist criterion, frequency-domain design, and state space methods.
