Features: This book is co-authored by several teachers who have been teaching this course for many years. It includes concepts of state space, the establishment and solution of state equations, Lyapunov stability theory, controllability and observability, pole placement and observers, as well as optimal control problems and basic solution methods: namely variational methods, dynamic programming, and the maximum principle. The book incorporates numerous examples and exercises, embedding key points and difficulties within them. Many examples use MATLAB, a contemporary popular practical tool, for their solutions. The book is clearly written, well-structured, and concise, with brief yet accurate descriptions of fundamental concepts, theorems, and definitions. It can serve as a textbook for undergraduate students in the field of automation and related disciplines at universities, as well as for engineers and technicians seeking advanced studies or self-learning.
