Reader Reviews
I am a practicing GNC Engineer (MSc. in EE) and this book is the most thorough and practical Control book that I have on my bookshelf (I have ten books in Control including Skogestad&Postlethwaite MIMO book; Franklin&Powell; Yaniv Oded; Horowitz; Chen, Garnell, Lewis ...). The book starts with standard SISO feedback issues before moving on to MIMO. It presents practical design techniques for Non Minimal phase and unstable plants (using coprime factorization and more). Most Control books usually gloss over Non Minimal phase plants but this one dwells on the topic and talks about trade-off and inherent limitations imposed by such plants. The coverage of plants with uncertain parameters (Robust Control) is excellent and the book gives you a great opportunity to learn and evaluate QFT and H-infinite design methods. The theory is excellent but not overwhelming and the author did a terrific job balancing theory and practice. Throughout the text, the author gave away practical design tricks. This book is a gem and is worth every penny! I gave it the maximum 5 stars but it deserves 10!!! Comment | | (Report this)
