Laboratory Courses at the Automatic Control Lab

Allgemeines Fachpraktikum I+II / General Laboratory I+II



Administration

Head: Prof. Manfred Morari
Contact Person: Aldo Zgraggen, ETL K12, Tel: 044 623 79 96
Days: Monday, Wednesday, and Friday
Time: 13:30, duration approx. 3 hrs
Location(s): ETL D12 (during autumn semester also in ML F44.1)


Autumn Semester

The experiments offered in the autumn semester treat various basic control methodologies such as

  • Sequential control and finite state machines
  • Fuzzy control
  • PID control

They demonstrate fundamental issues in control and thus complement the contents of courses Signal and System Theory II and Control Systems (RegelsystemeI).

Spring Semester

The experiments offered in the spring semester reinforce the control paradigms studied in the course Control Systems (Regelsysteme I). Students are encouraged to analyze the control problem and validate their results practically.

Topics treated are:

  • Open-loop shaping (PI, PID, Lead-Lag)
  • Optimal control (LQR)
  • Multiple Input - Multiple Output (MIMO) control
