Applied Control Theory for Embedded Systems

Course closed to new registrations: Call ( 949 ) 824-5414 for more information or sign up below to be notified when this course becomes available.×

Course Description

Apply modern control theory to optimize embedded system designs using microcontrollers or DSP devices. The majority of embedded designs are closed loop control systems, as opposed to open loop control. Gain practical how-to knowledge in deriving and applying practical control theory algorithms. Z Transforms are introduced as a practical way of developing the needed difference equations for optimal designs. Learn to evaluate and select the best control algorithm for desired control applications such as proportional-integral-derivative (PID), fuzzy logic or Z Transform-derived difference equations.

Prerequisite: EECS 805, C Programming for Embedded Systems and EECS X497.32, Fundamentals of Embedded Systems Design and Programming or equivalent experience.
