EECE 7200 Syllabus 2017

This syllabus outlines a graduate level course on linear systems analysis taught at Northeastern University during the fall 2017 semester. The course will cover topics such as vector spaces, linear operators, state variable modeling, controllability, observability, stability, realization theory, state feedback, pole placement, and observer design. Students will analyze and control linear systems using mathematical tools from linear algebra and systems theory. The goal is for students to understand the basic analysis of linear dynamical systems and apply these concepts to the design of linear control systems. Evaluation will consist of homework, a midterm exam, and a final exam.

Course Description and Objectives:


This course intends to provide the basic background on mathematical
systems theory and apply it in the analysis and control of linear systems.
First, we start with the mathematical analysis by introducing vector spaces
and linear operators. Then, the linear algebra and matrix theory are
covered. With this background the transfer function and state variable
representations of linear systems are introduced. The state space analysis
of linear systems is discussed in details and the following topics will be
covered: Controllability and observability, Stability, Realization, Canonical
forms, State feedback and observer design. The major objective of the
course is to provide the students with an understanding of the basic
mathematical structure used in the analysis of linear dynamical systems.
Consequently, the students should be able to apply these results for the
basic design of linear control systems. The students have the opportunity to
solve computer-aided problems using MATLAB and SIMULINK.
