Analog automation is a multidisciplinary science that studies techniques, tools and technologies for the design and implementation of analog controllers for dynamic processes, the controller being a device for automatic correction of possible errors between the set point quantity and the corresponding response.
Therefore, in an uncertain operating environment that is subjected to unknown disturbances or unpredictable noise, a dynamic process equipped with an appropriate controller can provide good dynamic performances (stability, overshoot, rapidity) and static performances (precision, robustness).
According to the history of automation, the first mechanical controller, known as the “water clock”, was invented in Greece by Ktesibios around 270 BC [STU 96]. After 23 centuries, in 1956, analog electronic controllers were developed [FRI 82, THO 07]. The first computer-aided digital feedback control processes were then implemented in major industries in the United States starting from 1950 [BAK 12]. Moreover, starting from the 1970s, the digital automation techniques assisted by microprocessor and PLC (programmable logic controller) have progressively occupied the wide SMI (small and medium-sized industries) sector, which had been beyond the reach of these computers until that time. They were, indeed, bulky, expensive and difficult to program. Furthermore, they had high maintenance costs and were sensitive to industrial environments.
Nevertheless, after the emergence of the first PC (personal computer) generations in the 1980s, followed by the development of microcomputer models featuring increasingly high performances at low costs (industrial PC, multimedia PC, PC/pad and PC/panel), the range of application of computer-aided digital control technology has rapidly extended to SMIs in various fields: manufacturing, textile, foodprocessing industry, chemical industry, energy, robotics, telescopic devices, avionics, bio-mechatronics, home automation, etc.
Given the lack of reference manuals intended to serve as a learning bridge between analog and digital control systems, this book will allow the readers to easily master analog automation skills and then to rapidly become introduced to the techniques for design and simulation of modern PC-aided digital control systems. The book is mainly addressed to students and teachers of engineering schools, to teachers’ training schools for technical education and to vocational training centers for applied sciences.
Indeed, readers will discover in this book the following relevant main elements:
– the stakes of computer-aided control in the set of control technologies for dynamic processes;
– a summary of the theory of analog control systems;
– a clear presentation of the experimental modeling of dynamic processes, with or without input delay;
– modern tools for the rapid design of optimal PID controllers;
– techniques for computer-aided synthesis and simulation of digital control loops, with a detailed case study of speed and position servomechanisms;
– methods for the discretization of dynamic process state models;
– Matlab® programs for teaching purposes, allowing the convenient introduction, if needed, of the digital and graphic results presented;
– a variety of corrected exercises at the end of each chapter.
The analog and digital control systems presented in this book are the result of the continuously enhanced teaching of the “Computer-aided automation of feedback control systems” course, which the author has taught since 2000 in the “Electrical Engineering” department of ENSET (École Normale Supérieure d’Enseignement Technique), a technical higher education school of the University of Douala, and in the “Computer Science Engineering” department of ESSET (Écoles Supérieures des Sciences et Techniques), scientific and technical higher education schools of Douala and Nkongsamba.

In automation, dynamic processes are part of a class of analog power systems that can be controlled in an open or closed loop. This is why the characteristic input, state and output signals of a dynamic process, are continuous time functions. Therefore, the architecture of an analog control loop of a dynamic process is homogeneous as regards the nature of signals involved, in which case the connection between the controller and the dynamic process does not require A/D (analog/digital) and D/A (digital/analog) conversion devices of signals involved.
In practice, the study of analog feedback control systems relies on design techniques available in automation, as well as on implementation technologies used in analog electronics. Nevertheless, in demanding application fields, analog control technology presents technical problems, the most important of which are [MBI 17]:
– large dimensions (volume, weight), especially for a significant number of control loops;
– aging of the controller components, which can lead to long-term parameter variations beyond acceptable thresholds;
– high sensitivity to noise and disturbances in the environment;
– lack of flexibility in terms of extension of the control device;
– complexity of advanced control strategy implementation;
– poor performance of the analog devices for monitoring, log book development, data archiving, etc.
A computer-aided control loop is a “hybrid” dynamic system. In fact, it involves continuous signals related to the dynamic process, while the signals involved in the computer operation are characterized by discrete quantities. In automated process engineering, this hybrid nature consequently generates the following new problems:
– the requirement to install between the computer and the analog process an interfacing device for combined A/D (analog/digital) and D/A (digital/analog) conversions [BOL 04, MBI 12];
