The aim of this book is to give the necessary knowledge about the implementation of MATLABʼ and Simulinkʼ in the development of embedded control systems. Together, MATLAB and Simulink present a sophisticated programming environment which may be used for the design as well as for the implementation of embedded control systems. In this book, the authors exploit the opportunity to generate automatically and embed control code from Simulink models which allows to develop quickly efficient and error free code. The automated code generation and the availability of powerful processors make possible the implementation of complex high-order controllers which achieve fast and high-performance closed-loop dynamics.

Shows readers how to exploit the capabilities of the MATLAB® Robust Control and Control Systems Toolboxes to the fullest using practical robust control examples.

The aim of this book is to present the theoretical and practical aspects of embedded robust control design and implementation with the aid of MATLAB(R) and SIMULINK(R). It covers methods suitable for practical implementations, combining knowledge from control system design and computer engineering to describe the entire design cycle.

These days, nearly all the engineering problem are solved with the aid of suitable computer packages. This book shows how MATLAB/Simulink could be used to solve state-space control problems. In this book, it is assumed that you are familiar with the theory and concepts of state-space control, i.e., you took or you are taking a course on state-space control system and you read this book in order to learn how to solve state-space control problems with the aid of MATLAB/Simulink. The book is composed of three chapters. Chapter 1 shows how a state-space mathematical model could be entered into the MATLAB/Simulink environment. Chapter 2 shows how a nonlinear system could be linearized around the desired operating point with the aid of tools provided by MATLAB/Simulink. Finally, Chapter 3 shows how a state-space controller could be designed with the aid MATLAB and be tested with Simulink. The book will be useful for students and practical engineers who want to design a state-space control system.

Feedback control systems is an important course in aerospace engineering, chemical engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and mechatronics engineering, to name just a few. Feedback control systems improve the system's behavior so the desired response can be achieved. The first course on control engineering deals with Continuous Time (CT) Linear Time Invariant (LTI) systems. Plenty of good textbooks on the subject are available on the market, so there is no need to add one more. This book does not focus on the control engineering theories as it is assumed that the reader is familiar with them, i.e., took/takes a course on control engineering, and now wants to learn the applications of MATLAB® in control engineering. The focus of this book is control engineering applications of MATLAB® for a first course on control engineering.
