Control Theory is at the heart of information and communication
technologies of complex systems. It can contribute to meeting the
energy and environmental challenges we are facing. The textbook is
organized in the way an engineer classically proceeds to solve a
control problem, that is, elaboration of a mathematical model
capturing the process behavior, analysis of this model and design
of a control to achieve the desired objectives. It is divided into
three Parts. The first part of the text addresses modeling aspects
through state space and input-output representations. The notion of
the internal state of a system (for example mechanical, thermal or
electrical), as well as its description using a finite number of
variables, is also emphasized. The second part is devoted to the
stability analysis of an equilibrium point. The authors present
classical tools for stability analysis, such as linearization
techniques and Lyapunov functions. Central to Control Theory are
the notions of feedback and of closed-loop, and the third part of
the textbook describes the linear control synthesis in a continuous
and discrete-time framework and also in a probabilistic context.
Quadratic optimization and Kalman filtering are presented, as well
as the polynomial representation, a convenient approach to reject
perturbations on the system without making the control law more
complex. Throughout the text, different examples are developed,
both in the chapters and in the exercises.
