Electrical systems are fundamental to our way of life, including electrical power, telecommunications, and automatic control systems. In this unit, you will learn mathematical techniques to analyse and design a wide range of electrical systems, such as communication, electrical power distribution, and transmission and control systems. You will be introduced to the concept of linear time-invariant systems and several mathematical tools used for system analysis, especially electrical system analysis, such as forward and inverse Laplace transforms, s-domain circuit analysis, and transfer function. You will also be introduced to the frequency response of a system, identify filter types, and design filters for given specifications. Through this unit, you will gain programming experience in using simulation software to analyse signals and linear systems. This unit will provide you with the opportunities to further develop communication skills through developing technical documentation and reports. All students must have access to a computer, frequently use the Internet, and complete the compulsory practical activities. Furthermore, the unit also aims to promote the UN sustainable development Goal 9 - Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialisation, and foster innovation by developing an understanding of how to build resilient and sustainable automation and intelligence systems to support industrial innovation.

Pre-requisites or Co-requisites
Pre-requisite: ENEE12014 Electrical Circuit Analysis
Important note: Students enrolled in a subsequent unit who failed their pre-requisite unit, should drop the subsequent unit before the census date or within 10 working days of Fail grade notification. Students who do not drop the unit in this timeframe cannot later drop the unit without academic and financial liability. See details in the Assessment Policy and Procedure (Higher Education Coursework).
Offerings For Term 2 - 2025
Attendance Requirements
All on-campus students are expected to attend scheduled classes - in some units, these classes are identified as a mandatory (pass/fail) component and attendance is compulsory. International students, on a student visa, must maintain a full time study load and meet both attendance and academic progress requirements in each study period (satisfactory attendance for International students is defined as maintaining at least an 80% attendance record).

Feedback, Recommendations and Responses
Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.
Feedback from Unit survey
The lectures and tutorials are very long, making them hard to learn in one go.
Break the lectures and tutorials into sizable chunks based on logical concepts and topics to allow easier digestion of materials.
Feedback from Unit survey
A computational modelling maths unit perhaps should be a prerequisite and provided to better prepare students for using Matlab in this unit.
Discuss with the School management to make MATH12225 - Applied Computational Modelling a prerequisite for the unit.
Feedback from Unit survey
The textbook while very thorough is very cumbersome to get through.
Consider replacing the current textbook with a new one that focuses more on practical guidance rather than theoretical rigorousness and abstraction.
Feedback from Unit survey
Although very comprehensive, the assessment workload was very high. Especially since the labs were too long, they took significant time to do, affecting the available valuable learning time for the lectures and tutorials.
Revise assessments and labs to streamline and reduce the length and the number of pieces without compromising on their thoroughness.
