AUTOMATIC FEEDBACK CONTROL SYSTEM SYNTHESIS. A Volume in McGraw-Hill Electrical and Electronic Engineering Series.

Represents an attempt to organize and unify the background material in the following five fields: . A working familiarity with the Laplace transform. . A familiarity with the fundamental concepts of feedback theory. . In using the Laplace transform, the ability to synthesize appropriate compensation networks. . Familiarity with the statistical methods of design. . Knowledge of the basic techniques available for considering nonlinear systems. Material has been presented in a way which will be of value not only as a textbook, but also as a reference book for industrial engineers concerned with the necessity for maximum utilization of available design theory.
