Description

This module gives a solid theoretical foundation for understanding feedback control system analysis and application and is suitable for general engineering students. This is supported by both PC laboratory activities and other activities. Content covers the basic analysis of feedback control loops using both the time and frequency domain techniques. Learning is reinforced through computer laboratories. The latter part of the model focuses on common feedback strategies and students will learn both analysis and indicative designs of these and reinforce learning through application to laboratory systems.
