Chapter 9

State-Space Analysis of Systems

Chapter Objectives

  • Understand the concepts of a state variable and state-space representation of systems.
  • Learn the advantages of state-space modeling over other methods of representing continuous-time and discrete-time systems.
  • Learn to derive state-space models for CTLTI and DTLTI systems from the knowledge of other system descriptions such as system function, differential equation or difference equation.
  • Learn how to obtain a system function, a differential equation or a difference equation from the state-space model of a system.
  • Develop techniques for solving state-space models for determining the state variables and the output signal of a system.
  • Explore methods of converting a state-space model ...
