This second edition comprehensively presents important tools of linear systems theory, including differential and difference equations, Laplace and Z transforms, and more.
Linear Systems Theory discusses :
* Nonlinear and linear systems in the state space form and through the transfer function method
* Stability, including marginal stability, asymptotical stability, global asymptotical stability, uniform stability, uniform exponential stability, and BIBO stability
* Controllability
* Observability
* Canonical forms
* System realizations and minimal realizations, including state space approach and transfer function realizations
* System design
* Kalman filters
* Nonnegative systems
* Adaptive control
* Neural networks
The book focuses mainly on applications in electrical engineering, but it provides examples for most branches of engineering,
