Modern Control Engineering
For senior or graduate-level students taking a first course in Control Theory (in departments of Mechanical, Electrical, Aerospace, and Chemical Engineering).
A comprehensive, senior-level textbook for control engineering.
Ogata’s Modern Control Engineering, 5/e , offers the comprehensive coverage of continuous-time control systems that all senior students must have, including frequency response approach, root-locus approach, and state-space approach to analysis and design of control systems. The text provides a gradual development of control theory, shows how to solve all computational problems with MATLAB, and avoids highly mathematical arguments. A wealth of examples and worked problems are featured throughout the text.
The new edition includes improved coverage of Root-Locus Analysis (Chapter 6) and Frequency-Response Analysis (Chapter 8). The author has also updated and revised many of the worked examples and end-of-chapter problems. This text is ideal for control systems engineers.
Why Read This Book
You should read this book if you need a systematic, mathematically sound introduction to feedback control: you will learn root-locus and frequency-response techniques, state-space design, and sampled-data/digital control methods with many worked examples and problems. The book gives you the theory and design recipes you can apply when developing PID loops, observers, and state-feedback controllers to run on microcontrollers, DSPs, or FPGAs.
Who Will Benefit
Best suited for senior undergraduates, graduate students, and practicing embedded engineers or control/robotics engineers who need to design, analyze, and implement feedback controllers (PID, state feedback, observers) for motor drives, robots, or other real-time control systems.
