This course aims to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of linear system theory. Students will explore the principles, concepts, and techniques related to linear systems, equipping them with the tools to analyze and design systems encountered in various fields, including control systems, signal processing, communications, and more.
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
(1) Recall key linear system theory concepts, including causality, time-invariance, linearity, stability, controllability, and observability,
(2) Explain system modeling, causality, time-invariance, linearity, Jordan form, and singular value decomposition (SVD),
(3) Use matrices and functions to show state solutions, and positive definiteness for stability analysis,
(4) Analyze state representations, stability, controllability, and observability in linear systems,
(5) Evaluate state feedback, observers, and methods for stability, controllability, and observability in diverse system models,
(6) Develop state feedback and observers for intricate linear systems, demonstrating matrix function, Jordan form, and SVD interplay.
