Features: This book covers the fundamental content of classical control theory and modern control theory. Starting from the basic knowledge of control theory, it provides an in-depth introduction to the state-space models, transfer functions, block diagrams, and signal flow graph models of control systems in the time domain and frequency domain. It elaborates in detail on the time-domain method, root locus method, frequency-domain method, and state-space method used for the analysis and design of control systems. It also discusses in detail the stability, transient, and steady-state performance of discrete systems. Additionally, it briefly introduces the phase-plane method and describing function method for nonlinear control systems. At the same time, combined with the analysis and design of control systems, MATLABＲ simulation examples are provided in relevant chapters. The book is richly illustrated, linking theory with practice, and particularly emphasizes the physical background of theory and its engineering applicability. It can serve as a required textbook for automation majors in higher education institutions, a foundational course textbook for electronic information-related majors, and a self-study reference for technical personnel engaged in control engineering. Led by Academician Wu Cheng of Tsinghua University, the editorial committee of the "National Higher Education Automation Major Series Textbooks" has, based on the needs of automation technology talents in the discipline, fully absorbed the advantages and characteristics of foreign automation textbooks, and organized the writing of this series of automation textbooks nationwide through a bidding process. This holds significant importance for promoting the development of automation majors in higher education institutions and cultivating talent. The construction of this series of textbooks follows new ideas and mechanisms, adapting to the new trends of teaching reform and development in higher education institutions. It is committed to creating high-quality textbooks and emphasizing the role of practical training in talent cultivation. It adopts a competitive mechanism to motivate and drive textbook development.
