ECE 486: Control Systems Laboratory

This laboratory section includes an introduction to MATLAB, analog simulations of arbitrary second order systems, digital simulation with SIMULINK, simulation of speed control on a DC motor, modeling a DC motor, PD Control using a Windows Target simulation, design of a Lead controller, and culminates with a final project that designs a stabilizing control for an inverted pendulum.
