Digital Control Systems Textbook

Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around finding updated resources for Digital Control Systems. Initially, "Digital Control Systems" by Benjamin C. Kuo was considered, but its age raised concerns about its relevance. Participants mentioned other textbooks, including Brogan's work on Modern Control Theory and Chen's popular textbook, noting that some older books can still be valuable. The book "Digital Control of Dynamic Systems" by Franklin, Powell, and Workman was also discussed, with one participant recalling its quality despite not having read it extensively. A participant mentioned downloading a scanned version of the Franklin, Powell, and Workman book, which, despite its poor quality, appeared comprehensive, prompting a search for a used copy on Amazon. Overall, the conversation highlights the importance of both classic and contemporary texts in mastering Digital Control Systems.

Hi Guys,

I need some material to update, or, better said, to reinforce my skills in Digital Control Systems.

In the very beginning I thought on "Digital Control Systems by Benjamin C. Kuo", but, after think about this, I realized that, maybe, this is an oldie for this subject.

Do you have any suggestion?

Thank you in advance.

D.

I have a copy of Kuo but I have not studied it in depth. Sometimes an old book is best. I used Brogan for Modern Control theory, but I do not think it covers only digital. Chen also wrote a popular textbook.

Have you ever heard about this: Digital control of dynamic systems by Franklin, Powell and Workman?
 
I have heard of Franklin, Powell and Naeini. I bought it bur never read a lot in it. As I remember it was probably pretty good, (or I would not have bought it). I just do not remember it.
 
Thank you for your message: I wrote this last message, because I read a reference about that book in an IEEE paper.
I downloaded from the book from the web, and despite is pretty difficult to read due to the low quality of the scanning, the book looks very complete, so, I will look for an used book on Amazon.
Thank you again
 
i am self learning physics. have you ever worked your way backwards again after finishing most undergrad courses? i have textbooks for junior/senior physics courses in classical mechanics, electrodynamics, thermal physics, quantum mechanics, and mathematical methods for self learning. i have the Halliday Resnick sophomore book. working backwards, i checked out Conceptual Physics 11th edition by Hewitt and found this book very helpful. What i liked most was how stimulating the pictures...
