Course Info
This is a first course in the design and analysis of instrumentation and control systems. The course starts with an introduction to instrumentation, covering the basics of sensor technology and measurement techniques, including the characteristics and real-world limitations of transducers as well as their interfacing with the control system. It then goes on to introduce Control Theory, providing a basic understanding and building the mathematical background for the modelling, design and analysis of linear single-input single-output feedback systems. It then introduces the concept of stability as well as the available methods for its assessment. It develops the analytical tools for the design of appropriate controllers to improve system performance. It allows students to appreciate the interdisciplinary nature and universal application of control engineering. Finally it introduces modern approaches including application of artificial intelligence to control systems.
