State Feedback Control and Kalman Filtering with MATLAB/Simulink Tutorials

by Liuping Wang, Robin Ping Guan

Overview

STATE FEEDBACK CONTROL AND KALMAN FILTERING WITH MATLAB/SIMULINK TUTORIALS

Discover the control engineering skills for state space control system design, simulation, and implementation

State space control system design is one of the core courses covered in engineering programs around the world. Applications of control engineering include things like autonomous vehicles, renewable energy, unmanned aerial vehicles, electrical machine control, and robotics, and as a result the field may be considered cutting-edge. The majority of textbooks on the subject, however, lack the key link between the theory and the applications of design methodology.

State Feedback Control and Kalman Filtering with MATLAB/Simulink Tutorials provides a unique perspective by linking state space control systems to engineering applications. The book comprehensively delivers introductory topics in state space control systems through to advanced topics like sensor fusion and repetitive control systems. More, it explores beyond traditional approaches in state space control by having a heavy focus on important issues associated with control systems like disturbance rejection, reference tracking, control signal constraint, sensor fusion and more. The text sequentially presents continuous-time and discrete-time state space control systems, Kalman filter and its applications in sensor fusion.

State Feedback Control and Kalman Filtering with MATLAB/Simulink Tutorials readers will also find:

• MATLAB and Simulink tutorials in a step-by-step manner that enable the reader to master the control engineering skills for state space control system design and Kalman filter, simulation, and implementation
• An accompanying website that includes MATLAB code
• High-end illustrations and tables throughout the text to illustrate important points
• Written by experts in the field of process control and state space control systems

State Feedback Control and Kalman Filtering with MATLAB/Simulink Tutorials is an ideal resource for students from advanced undergraduate students to postgraduates, as well as industrial researchers and engineers in electrical, mechanical, chemical, and aerospace engineering.
