ABSTRACT

An investigation of the interface between the technical literature's theoretical results and the problems that practising engineers face - and that engineering students will face - every day on the job. It demonstrates the extensive applications of quantitative feedback theory and seeks to bridge the gap between theory and practice. The book contains a user's manual and QFT design program on CD-ROM, to provide faster, easier access to design applications.
