Introduction to Linear Dynamical Systems
Description
The explosion of applications of linear dynamical systems over the past several decades makes the study of it both exciting and fundamental. This introduction to linear dynamical systems concentrates on applications to circuits, signal processing, communications, and control systems. Learn how linear differential equations are now being used in communications, finance, mechanical and civil engineering, and many other fields.
Prerequisites

Topics include
- Least-squares approximations and least-norm solutions
- Symmetric matrices, matrix norm and singular-value decomposition
- Eigenvalues and eigenvectors
- Matrix exponential, stability, and asymptotic behavior
- Multi-input multi-output systems
- Control, reachability and state transfer
