The Essentials of Linear State–Space Systems

Provides a thorough introduction to the properties of linear, time–invariant models of dynamical systems, as required for further work in feedback control system design, power system design and analysis, communications, signal processing, robotics, and simulation. The state–space model is used throughout, since it is a fundamental conceptual tool, although the background analysis applies to other models. Modelling and stability of general nonlinear systems is introduced, with the detailed analysis concentrating on LTI systems.
