ELEC 571

Control Systems

This course equips students with modern tools and computational methods to design feedback controllers for systems with complex dynamics, constraints, and model uncertainty. The focus is on real-world, cyber-physical systems where control is executed via embedded computation. By the end of the course, students will be able to:

  • Formulate control tasks involving uncertainty, safety, and performance constraints
  • Design controllers using optimization-based and data-driven techniques
  • Analyze and implement feedback algorithms in software
  • Apply methods to domains such as energy, traffic, and robotics, among others
