Course Review (L27.1) (Pages 3-28)
-
Smart systems integrate perception and control to interact with the environment using data in a predictive/adaptive manner.
-
Smartness is linked to the level of autonomous operations, often depending upon application type (e.g., smart manufacturing/industry 4.0)
-
Five main components of a smart system: perception, control, knowledge, communication, and security.
-
Systems analysis - frequency/time domains; using transfer functions (Chapter 2 of Nise) & state equations (Chapter 3 of Nise) relationships between input/output.
-
State space representation - a way/method for mathematically representing a physical system by linearly independent system variables (e.g., position, velocity, acceleration.).
-
A linear system may be represented in state space using equations. Examples are: x = Ax+ Bu, y = Cx+ Du.
-
