Analysis and design of feedback control systems with digital and sampled data.

• Modeling and analysis: time- and frequency-domain analysis in discrete-time; z-transforms; signal sampling and data conversion; state and input-output models; stability; state and transfer functions models for mixed continuous/discrete-time systems
• Controllability, observability and observer design: controllability and observability; state feedback; observers and observer feedback; disturbance rejection and tracking designs using pole placement; the parametrization of all stabilizing controllers
• Optimal and robust control: dynamic programming; minimum principle; linear-quadratic problems; optimal designs with H[infinity] and l1 performance objectives
• Hybrid systems: sampled-data (hybrid continuous/discrete time) issues in optimization and design; digital controller design with continuous-time performance objectives; periodicity of sampled-data control systems; inter sample behavior
• Implementation issues: sampling rate selection; effects of quantization and finite precision error; multirate systems
