Digital Control Systems | Faculty of Technical Sciences

Subject: Digital Control Systems (17.AU41)

Native organizations units: Sub-department for Automatic Control and Systems Engineering

Type of studies	Title
Undergraduate Academic Studies	Measurement-Information Technologies and Control Engineering (Year: 3, Semester: Winter)

General information:

Category	Scientific-professional
Scientific or art field	Automatic Control and System Engineering
ECTS	7

Students gain theoretical and practical knowledge about computer control systems.

The acquired knowledge is used in solving practical engineering problems and form the basis for future professional courses.

Introduction to digital control systems. Sampling and hold process. Direct digital control. z-transform. Concept of digital state space models. Pulse transfer function. Analysis of digital systems. Digital system stability. Digital control system design: regulators, PID regulators, servo regulators, cancellation controllers, state space regulators. Implementation of digital control algorithms.

Lectures, numerical calculation practice, computer practice, laboratory practice. Consultations. The exam is written and oral. The course material can be divided into two colloquia. The oral part of the exam is based on a set of exam questions. Colloquia and tests are valid for two exam periods. Colloquia and exam are written, with the written part being prerequisite for the oral. The final grade is formed on the bases of achievements at the colloquia, homework assignments and the written and oral part of the exam.
