CPE 470 - Real-time Embedded Controls

Institution:

Western New England University

Subject:

Description:

Prerequisite: CPE 427, CPE 420 or permission of the instructor. This is an introductory course in the design and understanding of embedded micro-controllers in a time critical control application. After completing this course, students understand issues involved with, concurrent threads, real-time scheduling theory, and constraints. In addition, students learn the fundamentals of discrete systems modeling, analysis, and design. They also gain an understanding of how to solve the complete response of a system represented in discrete time. Students implement control algorithms on an embedded processor in the C language. Control issues associated with fixed-point processors, limited bandwidth I/O channels, and limited precision interfaces are studied. The methods for assessing student learning in the course are homework assignments, quizzes, exams, and a design project. 3 cr.
