Language of instruction

Czech

Number of ECTS credits

6

Learning outcomes of the course unit

Acquired knowledge enables students to solve dynamic systems in the time domain as well as in the frequency domain, to design feedback controllers with a prescribed behavior of the closed loop, application for a position control of servodrives for NC machines and robots

Prerequisites

Linear differential equations, matrix calculus, principles of electrical engineering, mechanics, electrical servodrives

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Teaching is suplemented by practical laboratory work.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

The course-unit credit is awarded on condition of having to elaborated given problems. Individual solution is expected applying program MATLAB/SIMULINK. Examination has a written and an oral part.

Aims

The goal of the subject is to provide students with basic knowledge of control theory of dynamical systems and its application to control mechatronic and robotic systems by a feedback controller.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

Attendance at practical training is obligatory.
