Prerequisites

Basic knowledge of the control of linear continuous-time and/or discrete-time systems or of robust control

Skills to be acquired in this module

The students identify fundamentals of robust control and state estimation as well as problem-specific solution techniques and their corresponding software implementation.
Professional competences
