It continues to be developed through modern theories, different approaches based on models and data are considered. In this course, two algebraic methods are used to deduce optimal regulators. The first is based on variational calculus. It is utilized for systems whose parameters are not subject to uncertainties. The second is based on the robust regularized least mean square. It is used to deal with systems subjected to parametric uncertainties. Concepts related to reinforcement learning and optimal control are introduced.

Power Quality - SEL5749 The course aims to highlight the main fundamentals, terms and definitions about the Power Quality (PQ). As the sources of disturbances associated with the lack of PQ must be known and controlled, the course in question also aims to present techniques for the detection, classification and location of different disturbances and or phenomena that may occur and or manifest on the Electric Power System (EPS), presenting modern tools for this purpose. In addition to theoretical knowledge, the course presents to the graduate students, the development of research related to the outlined subjects, denoting the current interest of the Brazilian and worldwide electric sector in the topics covered.

Numerical methods in Optoelectronics - SEL5736 A disciplina tem por objetivo a formação de estudantes de pós-graduação voltada à análise e projeto eficientes de dispositivos optoeletrônicos através do ensino de técnicas aprimoradas de modelagem matemática. O curso pretende introduzir várias técnicas de modelagem atualmente utilizadas na literatura destinadas à análise de estruturas eletromagnéticas, tais como: guias de ondas, acopladores, redes de difração, sensores, e moduladores. Serão também contempladas estruturas metamateriais plasmônicas (nano-plasmonics), o que inclui meios estratificados (multicamadas), metasuperfícies, e lentes plasmônicas. As técnicas a serem utilizadas para análise e modelagem das estruturas acima são baseadas no eletromagnetismo clássico, ou seja, serão baseadas na solução das equações de Maxwell sujeitas às condições de contorno apropriadas. Isso inclui métodos baseados em soluções analíticas e métodos numéricos (baseados em diferenças finitas e elementos finitos).

Teoria da Informação e Códigos de Transmissão - SEL5732 Os objetivos incluem a introdução das noções de entropia e de informação mútua, estudos de técnicas de codificação da fonte e do canal. Assim, pretende-se que o aluno compreenda a medida de informação de uma fonte de informação e a transmissão de informação através de um canal de comunicação. As técnicas de codificação da fonte servem para explicar a compressão de dados, enquanto as técnicas de codificação de canal servem para explicar os métodos de controle de erros em canais de comunicação.

Guided Wave Theory - SEL5875 This discipline aims at the formation of post-graduation students to the analysis and design of efficient electromagnetic devices both in optical and microwave frequencies. During the course, the fundaments of electromagnetic propagation are discussed targeting the following applications: waveguides, couplers, diffraction gratings, and modulators. It is also introduced the concept of optical and microwave metamaterials and metasurfaces, including stratified media, diffractive optics and microwave (lenses and holograms). All techniques discussed during class are based on classical electromagnetism, i.e., are based on the solution of Maxwell equations and their appropriate boundary conditions.
