To present the laws and applications of electromagnetics.

Continuous-time linear systems and signals, their mathematical representations, and computational tools. Fourier and Laplace transforms, convolutions, input-output responses, stability.

Basic concepts of DC and AC circuit theory and analysis.

Design of control algorithms using state-space methods, microcontroller implementation of control algorithms, and laboratory projects emphasizing motion control applications.

For students holding graduate research assistantships.

Introduction to linear systems theory focusing on linear algebra and feedback design. Topics include state space representations of systems, equivalent realizations of linear systems, the Jordan canonical form, controllability,   observability and   the Kalman decomposition,  and feedback design for eigenvalue assignments based on state feedback and Luenberger observers.  Credit will not be awarded for both ECE 6550 and AE 6530.

An introduction to electric circuit elements and electronic devices and a study of circuits containing such devices.
