Automatic Control Systems

The first course in control systems introduces: Introduction to feedback control systems, Block Diagram Representation , Signal Flow Graph, Analyzing the performance of control systems either in open or closed loops, transient-response analysis and steady state error analysis, basic control actions (PID), tuning methods of PID controller, Steady State Error analysis, stability analysis through the Routh-Hurwitz. Software simulation primarily with MATLAB and laboratory experiments will complement and supplement the theory.
