This document is a laboratory report for CET 4864 – Principles of Feedback Control Systems at New York City College of Technology, completed by student Charles Gnoto in Spring 2022. It serves as a practical exercise to familiarize students with the MATLAB software environment.
This lab report is essential for students enrolled in the course who need to develop proficiency in using MATLAB for control systems analysis and design. It’s typically completed early in the semester to build a foundational skillset. This assignment demonstrates a student's initial ability to use MATLAB for basic mathematical operations, matrix manipulation, plotting, and script writing.
This report does *not* provide in-depth control systems theory or advanced MATLAB techniques. It focuses solely on introductory commands and functionalities. Further coursework will build upon these skills.
This document includes the lab’s objective, detailed exercises with results (including MATLAB command outputs for matrix operations, polynomial manipulation, and function evaluation), the MATLAB scripts used to generate those results, and a concluding summary. However, this preview only shows excerpts of the exercises and results; the full report contains the complete solutions and detailed code.
