In contrast, modern control theory is carried out in the state space, and can deal with multi-input and multi-output ( MIMO ) systems.
This overcomes the limitations of classical control theory in more sophisticated design problems, such as fighter aircraft control, with the limitation that no frequency domain analysis is possible.
In modern design, a system is represented to the greatest advantage as a set of decoupled first order differential equations defined using state variables.
Matrix methods are significantly limited for MIMO systems where linear independence cannot be assured in the relationship between inputs and outputs.
Scholars like Rudolf E. Kalman and Aleksandr Lyapunov are well-known among the people who have shaped modern control theory.
