The main objective of this course is the practical application of the contents of the lectures 'Control Systems 1' and 'Automation'. Besides the identification of linear and nonlinear plants the design of linear feedback controllers for specific examples will be carried out in simulation and for selected experimental setups.

Simulation of mechatronic systems in Matlab/Simulink; identification of real systems by means of step responses, FFT and least squares methods; controller design (LQR) and observer design (LQG) for linear and linearized plants.

• Preliminary discussion will take place on October 3^rd 2018, 1:30pm in room CA0426 (computer lab at the institute).
• Exercise course starts at the beginning of October 2018
• Used software: Matlab/Simulink, Maple
• Guidelines for the exercise course:
  At least two weeks before each unit the exercises are made available on the homepage of the institute to be thoroughly prepared by the students. During the lab units the prepared exercises are discussed and new examples are elaborated. Please make sure that you already know before the kick-off meeting with whom you want to form a group of 2 persons. The registration for the groups is open after the preliminary discussion via TISS.
• For administrative questions feel free to contact Robert Brauneis, meiringer@acin.tuwien.ac.at

The examination consists of the following points:

(i) review of the prepared exercises and

(ii) participation during the course.

Lecture notes for the course are available on the website of the Institute.
