Summary
This module introduces the state-space representation of physical systems and the control design of multi-input multi-output systems using multivariable control techniques. The module then covers both the full and reduced observer design for those cases when state variables are not measurable. The module finishes with and overview of optimal control design.

Educational Aims
Students following this module should develop good understanding of Multivariable state feedback control used in a wide range of engineering applications from mechanical, to electronic, electrical and chemical. They will gain a basic knowledge of state space modelling of linear and nonlinear systems, including simplification of practical aspects. Students will learn about advanced control design techniques for multivariable state feedback both in continuous and discrete domain together with observer theory. They will gain a good understanding of the role of these control techniques for the development and implementation of a variety of engineering systems.Learning Outcomes
LO1: Apply multivariable state space techniques to determine models of linear systems.
LO2: Analyse state space models and determine controllability and observability.
LO3: Design multivariable state feedback control systems in continuous and discrete domains.
LO4: Design full order and reduced order observers for state variable estimation in continuous and discrete domains.
