ECE 6550: Linear Systems and Control
Fall 2022 (GT Metz)

Course Description: Introduction to linear system theory and feedback control. Topics include state space representation, controllability and observability, linear feedback control.

Course Objectives:
  • Students will demonstrate expertise to solve linear, time-invariant differential equations, model physical systems by the state-space approach, analyze reachability, controllability and observability of linear systems.
  • Students will demonstrate the ability to design feedback controllers for closed-loop stability and eigenvalue assignment, and design Luenberger observers for output feedback.
