This document is a lab report for CET 4864, Principles Of Feedback Control Systems, at New York City College of Technology. It details an experiment focused on Bode diagrams and their implementation within Matlab. The report is authored by Carl Freycinet and Melik Distant, submitted to Professor Luisalberto Aponte on November 17, 2017.
This lab report is essential for students enrolled in the course who need to demonstrate their understanding of frequency response analysis using Bode plots. It’s typically completed after lectures covering Bode diagrams and Matlab’s control systems toolbox. The assignment serves as a practical application of theoretical concepts.
This report does *not* provide a comprehensive tutorial on control systems theory. It assumes prior knowledge of the subject matter. It also doesn’t offer generalized Matlab instruction; it focuses specifically on commands used for Bode plot generation.
The full report includes: an objective outlining the lab’s goals, a detailed procedure for obtaining and analyzing Bode diagrams for various systems, results showcasing the diagrams generated in Matlab alongside code snippets, and a conclusion summarizing the findings. It also contains explanations of the `logspace` and `bode` Matlab commands. This preview only provides a summary of the document’s purpose and contents.
