Prerequisites
Automatic controlIntended learning outcomes
The students should obtain knowledge about the control methods and strategies that are common in industry. In particular, the course should give an understanding for how control problems of different complexity can be solved using various types of computer-implemented controllers. More specifically, the students should know how to
- Use programmable logic controllers (PLCs)
- Analyse sequential control problems with relay ladder diagrams and sequential function charts (GRAFCET)
- Model and analyse discrete-time systems
- Sample continuous-time systems approximately or exactly
- Handle limitations in the design of linear control systems
- Tune PID controllers and implement them in software
- Evaluate the performance of a control system
- Use various linear control system structures
- Design and analyse model predictive controllers (MPCs)
- Use several versions of MPC, e.g., for guaranteeing good reference tracking or stability
Course content
Sequential control: Function charts, relay ladder diagrams, PLC languages.
Basic tools and methods: Discrete-time control theory, sampling of systems, process models.
Design and tuning of controllers: Internal model control, Smith predictor, reference feedforward control, PID tuning.
Implementation and operation of controllers: Digital implementation, anti-windup, mode transitions, performance measures, Harris index, oscillation index.
Nonlinear control strategies: Selector control, gain scheduling, fuzzy control.
Control system structures: Disturbance feedforward control, cascade control, ratio control, mid-range control, split-range control.
Model predictive control: Formulation of optimization problems for MPC, reference tracking, integral action, stability, explicit MPC.
Teaching and working methods
The course consists of lectures, exercise sessions and laboratory work.

Regulations (apply to LiU in its entirety)
The university is a government agency whose operations are regulated by legislation and ordinances, which include the Higher Education Act and the Higher Education Ordinance. In addition to legislation and ordinances, operations are subject to several policy documents. The Linköping University rule book collects currently valid decisions of a regulatory nature taken by the university board, the vice-chancellor and faculty/department boards.
LiU’s rule book for education at first-cycle and second-cycle levels is available at http://styrdokument.liu.se/Regelsamling/Innehall/Utbildning_pa_grund-_och_avancerad_niva.
Course literature is preliminary.
