Application of MATLAB in CAI Courseware of “Computer Control System”

By using the Control System Toolbox and Simulink provided by MATLAB, the author developed a series of CAI coursewares of “Computer Control System”. Three examples are presented in the paper. Through modeling, simulating and programming in MATLAB, these coursewares can illustrate those tedious mathematical derivation and demonstrate the influence of varied parameters on system vividly, which are superior to traditional cartoon. Practice has proved that learning interest of students is enhanced and teaching effect is improved.
