Description: "Control Systems with Actuator Saturation Analysis and Design examines the problem of actuator saturation depth. The overall approach takes into account the saturation nonlinearities at the outset of the control design. In the case that a control law is designed a priori to meet either the performance or stability requirement, it analyzes the closed loop system under actuator saturation systematically and redesigns the controller in such a way that the performance is retained while stability is improved.

It also presents some related results on systems with state saturation or sensor saturation.".

"This book is a resource for professionals, researchers, practitioners, graduate students in control, electrical, and mechanical engineering, and all scientists and engineers interested in control systems with actuator saturation. Some first-year graduate courses in linear systems and multivariable control or some background in nonlinear control systems would greatly facilitate the reading of this book."--BOOK JACKET.
