Control Systems: Theory and Applications is designed to meet the requirements of undergraduate programs in electrical, instrumentation, electronics and communication, and other allied engineering disciplines. This book presents a comprehensive treatment of the fundamentals of control system theory with an emphasis on its practical applications. It covers a range of topics from the conventional to the modern and from the non-linear to the basic digital control systems, along with an introduction on the applications of fuzzy logic in control systems. It also provides an exhaustive coverage on continuous-time and discrete-time systems and the time-domain and frequency-domain analysis of control systems. The user-friendly approach and rich pedagogy will help students to enhance their problem-solving skills and enable them to apply the theories to the design and analysis of control systems.
