between sampling instants. Analysis of sampled data systems and
stability testing. State-space analysis and design of continuous

Classes:
Mondays and Thursdays, 8:30- 9:50 am, COR B129.
Demos:
Demo 1: Thursday, February 12, 8:30am in ELW A359.
Problem for Demo #1:
Design and implement a position control system with a digital compensator.
The open loop system G(s)=K/[s(s+a)] with a=3.4, K=120.52.
Design specifications: sampling period T=0.05495, Kv=15 and phase margin > 45 deg
Design a digital compensator for an open loop
system G(s)=K/[s(s+a)] with a=3.4, K=120.52, T=0.05495 so that Kv=15 and phase margin > 45 deg.

Demo 2: Monday, March 23, 8:30am in ELW A359.
Problem for Demo #2:
Consider a continuous system {A,b,c} where:
A=[0, 13.71; 0, -3.4], b'=[0, 9.01] and c=[1, 0].
Sampling time, T=0.05495 (same as in demo #1).
- 1. Design a digital state feedback controller so that
the output follows the reference signal at steady state and
the step responce has a damping ratio of 0.8 and a settling time of 0.6 sec.
- 2. Design a digital integral error feedback controller so that
the output follows the reference signal at steady state and
the step responce has a damping ratio of 0.8 and a settling time of 0.6 sec.
