Linear Systems: Optimal and Robust Control

by Alok Sinha

Overview

Balancing rigorous theory with practical applications, Linear Systems: Optimal and Robust Control explains the concepts behind linear systems, optimal control, and robust control and illustrates these concepts with concrete examples and problems.

Developed as a two-course book, this self-contained text first discusses linear systems, incl
