This Page Catalog Description 409 Introductory Feedback Control Laboratory. Concepts in modern feedback control applied to hardware-based design problems. This lab gives students a wide range of conceptual and hardware experience, rather than focusing on specific applications.
Weekly exercises consist of theory, design, simulation, testing, and data analysis.
The course consists of 12 weekly experiments and one final project. A written report is required for each experiment. The first half of the course concentrates on analog control, and the second half on digital control. Each experiment addresses a different design approach. The last three weeks of the semester are devoted to the final project.
