Multivariable Computer-controlled Systems

In this book, the authors extend the parametric transfer function methods, which incorporate time-dependence, to the idea of the parametric transfer matrix in a complete exposition of analysis and design methods for multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) sampled-data systems. Appendices covering basic mathematical formulae, two MATLAB® toolboxes round out this self-contained guide to multivariable control systems. The book will interest researchers in automatic control and to development engineers working with advanced control technology.
