The aim of Design of Embedded Robust Control Systems Using MATLAB / Simulink is to present the theoretical and practical aspects of embedded robust control design and implementation with the aid of MATLAB and Simulink. It covers methods suitable for practical implementations, combining knowledge from control system design and computer engineering to describe the entire design cycle.
Three extended case studies are developed in depth: embedded control of a tank physical model, robust control of a miniature helicopter, and robust control of two-wheeled robots.These are taken from the area of motion control but the book may be also used by designers in other areas. Some knowledge of linear control theory is assumed and experience of C programming is desirable but to make the book accessible to engineers new to the field and to students, the authors avoid complicated mathematical proofs and overwhelming computer architecture technical details. All programs used in the examples and case studies are freely downloadable to help with the assimilation of the book contents.
MATLAB and Simulink are used in the book for the development of embedded control systems. Robust Control Toolbox, System Identification Toolbox, and Simulink Coder are used in some of the examples included in the text. In addition, companion code is provided by the authors online (MATLAB, Simulink, Control System Toolbox, and Robust Control Toolbox are required).
