Feedback and multivariable systems

This theoretical text is concerned with the provision of an analytical and conceptual basis for the analysis and design of unity negative multivariable.output feedback-control systems by using Laplace trans¬ forms and frequency.domain techniques. Through¬ out the text, all system elements are assumed to be described by linear, time-invariant, deterministic state-vector models. Preliminary chapters concen¬ trate on the basic properties of dynamical models. Feedback is introduced in the form of constant state feedback but attention is focused on output feedback systems and system description using transfer function matrices.
