The classical (conventional) control theory concerned with single input and single output is mainly based on Laplace transform theory and its use in system representation in Laplace transform. The ...
The Laplace transform is less familiar, even though it is a generalization of the Fourier transform. [Steve Bruntun] has a good explanation of the math behind the Laplace transform in a recent ...
The time discretization is accomplished by using a modified Laplace transform in time to represent the solution as an integral along a smooth curve extending into the left half of the complex plane, ...
