DESCRIPTION:
Justin Cox said Not bad at all. This book is a solid introduction to the art of using state variable techniques to analyze linear and nonlinear systems. All the basic concepts are here, from state variable representations to the design of controllers and observers. The last chapter or two focuses on detection and estimation using batch and recursive estimators as well as the discrete-time Kalman filter. The chapters are easy to. was what I expected and the book's pages were comfortable and clear This book was what I expected and the book's pages were comfortable and clear.
"a welcome addition to the set of books on this subject." (International Journal of Robust and Linear Controls, Vol. 12, 2002)
The book begins with an introduction to the basic concepts behind time domain techniques, comparisons between state variable feedback and classical output feedback, and a discussion of the concepts of observability and controllability. It is also an excellent reference for professionals who want to keep pace with recent changes in the field.. This new edition retains thorough coverage of the eigenvalue-eigenvector problem from the first edition, as well as several chapters on state variables for continuous and discrete-time systems--now supplemented with additional material on observability and controllability. This treatment demonstrates how these basic linear algebra tools are related to the state variable analysis of linear systems. The classic text, now completely up to date This Second Edition of State Variables for Engineers is completely updated to reflect both the many changes in the field of systems and control and the fact that today's first-year graduate students are well prepared in the background skills and techniques needed to handle this material. It also offers three entirely new chapters covering: * Canonical forms for representing linear systems * Observers and controllers *
