Introduction to State-Space Equations | State Space, Part 1

Let’s introduce the state-space equations, the model representation of choice for modern control. This video is the first in a series on MIMO control and will provide some intuition around how to think about state variables and why this representation is so powerful.

Having a solid foundational knowledge of state space and state variables will help you learn the control techniques built on state space models like Kalman filtering, LQR control, robust control, and model predictive control.

Brian Douglas: the great explainer. The fact that this content is 100% free is one of the reasons why I think that the internet is the greatest invention of all the time.

I studied Control Systems 5 years ago at University. The teacher was awful and the lectures were boring as hell. I still dont know how I managed to pass... Anyway, I found this video incredibly well explained: easy, clear and concise! I think that I have learnt more about the basics of Control System in these 14 minutes than I did in 3 months of lectures at University. Big thanks!!

Amazing intuitive overview !! Thank you for your amazing videos, helped me grasp the true essence of classical control and now the modern ! A legend gotta say !

[ivanzelinka]

Perfect, simple, clear, without any fuzziness... thanks!

Brian, it is now 3 years that I follow you on your videos, and alll are awesom

[danielbadel]

Hey Brian! Excellent work, you make everything look so easier and super intuitive

[Sal]

Thanks a lot for your lessons
I literally would be lost without them. please keep making great videos.

[wiloberlies]

Just keep getting is great work Brian, thank you.

[nikash]

This is like explanation of Kalman Filter basics. Great video!

[BihnDan]

This is a BRILLIANT overview/explanation - best I’ve seen. Thanks!

[magtazeum]

It's so good see Brian here MATLAB.. I miss his channel

[anitmalik]

Thanks Brian for sharing. Excellent and practical explanations. Keep the good work. Every work was chosen in the video and value for the time

[leopsico]

Thank you of the explanation! Really clear information to help visualize what is happen beyond numbers.

[zainmubarak]

Thank you brain for all of your videos the way you are explaining topics is very good...i wish the best for you

[jeffreyyoung]

Brian the LEGEND Douglas at it again! Thank you so much for your tutorials Brian! They're INCREDIBLY helpful

[edizferitkula]

Awsome video, I was searching for this. It just answered all of my questions about state space models.

[MrEdnz]

Amazing video, nice to go back to the basics! Sometimes you forget what you’re actually working with 😅

[shando_tube]

learned more in this video than in the first 10 lectures of my state variables class, thanks Brian Douglas

[capitansheriff]

kudos.your explanation brought back a lot of memories on what i learnt some time past. thanks for the help.
