Form of assessment: continuous
Type of exam: written

Abstract:
The course aims are to give knowledge and practical skills for modelling, analysis and synthesis of automatic
control systems. Prerequisites to this course are the Computer Architecture and Signal Processing courses. The
acquired knowledge is applied in various fields of engineering. It is a basis for the courses in which control
systems and their elements are studied.
Course content:
Control systems: basic concept and definitions. Mathematical models of linear continuous-time control systems.
Stability analysis. Dynamic performance analysis. Steady-state errors. Control systems design methods. P, PI, PD
and PID controllers. Digital controllers. Sensors and actuators. System architecture and functions of computer
control systems. Analog and digital input/output modules. Textual and graphics IEC 61131-3 programming
languages.
Teaching and assessment:
Lectures present the theoretic aspects of the problems addressed by the course and illustrate them with
appropriate examples. The aim of the practical exercises is to teach the students to apply creatively the acquired
knowledge. They are conducted with the aid of MATLAB software system. Students’ progress is checked during
each exercise throughout the semester. Students have to attend all the practical classes. Continuous assessment
is carried out in the form of two written tests: the first one in the middle of the semester and the second one, at the
end of the semester. The tests consist of problem solving and question answering. The mark from the practical
work is taken into consideration when forming the final course mark.
3124 Course Project on Teletraffic Engineering
ECTS credits: 2
Weekly classes: 0lec+0sem+0labs+0ps+3cp
Assessment: defence
Type of exam: oral
Department involved:
Department of Telecommunications

Abstract:
This project focuses on statistics, the nature of traffic, practical models, measurements and simulations to make
predictions and design telecommunication networks at minimum total cost.
Course content:
The course includes the application of traffic engineering theory in telecommunications. Teletraffic engineers use
their knowledge of statistics, the nature of traffic, practical models, measurements and simulations to make
predictions and design telecommunication networks at minimum total cost.
Teaching and assessment:
This enables the students to prepare in advance for the practice sessions and to work independently during the
classes. Workshops are held in computer labs.Students do practical work based on developing, testing and
debugging computer networks.
