About this book

This unique book provides a bridge between digital control theory and vehicle guidance and control practice. It presents practical techniques of digital redesign and direct discrete-time design suitable for a real-time implementation of controllers and guidance laws at multiple rates and with and computational techniques. The theory of digital control is given as theorems, lemmas, and propositions. The design of the digital guidance and control systems is illustrated by means of step-by-step procedures, algorithms, and case studies. The systems proposed are applied to realistic models of unmanned systems and missiles, and digital implementation.

Reviews

“The book will be of great interest to researchers, academics and industry engineers since it combines theory and practise and outlines control techniques along with the many issues that arise when implementing them. It also includes several explanatory figures and many numerical simulations … .” (Lazaros Moysis, zbMATH 1402.93013, 2019)
