Plant:
The portion of the system to be controlled or regulated is
called the plant or process. OR
A set of machines parts functioning together to
perform a particular operation is known as a plant.
Process:
A process is to be natural, an artificial or voluntary,
progressively continuing operations that consist of
series of controlled actions or movement
systematically directed towards a particular result.
eg. Chemical, biological, economical process
16
17
Controller:
The element of the system itself or external to the system
which control the plant or process is called controller.
Disturbance:
Disturbance is a signal which tends to adversely
affect the value of the output of a syste. If such
disturbance is generated within the system itself, it is
called internal disturbance. If disturbance generated
outside the system acting as an extra input to the
system in addition to its normal input, then it is called
as external disturbance.
17
18
Feedback control:
Feedback control is an operation which, in the
presence of disturbances, tend to reduce the
difference between output of the system and the
reference input. Only unpredictable disturbances are
to be designed, since for predictable/known
disturbances, it is always possible to include
compensation within the system, so that measurement
is not necessary. Thus,
A feedback control system is one which tend to
maintain a prescribed relationship between the output
and the reference input by comparing these and using

automatically.
 To maintain the quality and accuracy, recalibration of
the controller is regularly required. 29
CLOSED LOOP SYSTEM

Definition:
“A system in which the control action is
somehow dependent on the output or changes
in output is called as closed loop system”.
The information about the instantaneous state of the
output is feedback to the input and is used to modify
it in such a manner as to achieve the desired output.

Linear Control System
 The systems which follow the principle of
homogeneity and additivity are called as linear
control systems.
 In order to understand the linear control system, we
should first understand the principle of
superposition. The principle of superposition
theorem includes two the important properties as
below:
 Homogeneity: A system is said to be
homogeneous, if we multiply input with some
41
41
Linear Control System
 Additivity: Suppose we have a system S and we are giving
the input to this system as a1 for the first time and we are
getting the output as b1 corresponding to input a1. On the
second time we are giving input a2 and correspond to this
we are getting the output as b2.
 Now suppose this time we are giving input as a summation
of the previous inputs (i.e. a1 + a2) and corresponding to this
input suppose we are getting the output as (b1 + b2) then we
can say that system S is following the property of additivity.
 Eg. a purely resistive network with a constant
DC source

 Non-linear systems do not obey law of
superposition.
 The stability of non-linear systemsdependson root
location as well as initial conditions & type of
input.

Time varying/In-varying Control System
 Systems whose parameters vary
with time are called time varying
control systems. It is not depend on whether input
or output are function of time or not.
 Eg. Driving a vehicle, mass is a parameter of space
vehicle system. The mass of missile/rocket
reduces as fuel is burnt and hence the parameter
mass is time varying and the control system is
time varying type.
 If even though input or output are function of time

Time varying/In-varying Control System
 Eg. Control system made up of inductor, capacitor,
resistor only
 Let x(t) and y(t) be the input and output signals,
respectively, of a system shown in Fig. Then the
transformation of into is represented by the
mathematical notation y(t) = Tx(t)
 where T is the operator which defined rule by which
x(t) is transformed into y(t). A system is called time-
invariant if a time shift in the input signal x(t-t0) causes
the same time shift in the output signal y(t-t0).

 If all the system variables are function of a
continuous time t, then it is called as continuous data
control system.
 Eg. The speed control of a dc motor using
tachogenerator feedback
 A discrete time control system involves one or more
variables that are known only at discrete time
intervals.
 Eg. Microprocessor or computer based systems use
discrete time signals.

 Digital systems can handle nonlinear control systems
more effectively than the analog type of systems.
 Power requirement in case of a discrete or digital
system is less as compared to analog systems.
 Digital system has a higher rate of accuracy and can
perform various complex computations easily as
compared to analog systems.
 Reliability of the digital system is more as compared
to an analog system. They also have a small and
compact size.
 Digital system works on the logical operations which
increases their accuracy many times.

Lumped / Distributed Parameter Control System
 In these types of control systems, the various active and
passive components are assumed to be concentrated at a
point and that’s why these are called lumped parameter
type of system.
 Eg. R, L C parameters in electrical networks. Analysis of
such type of system is very easy which includes
differential equations.
 In these types of control systems, the various active (like
inductors and capacitors) and passive parameters
(resistor) are assumed to be distributed uniformly along
the length and that’s why these are called distributed
parameter type of system.
 Transmission line parameters R-L. Analysis of such type
of system is slightly difficult which includes partial

response to input as well as behaviour to external
disturbances is predictable and repeatable.
 If the response to input is unpredictable and non-
repeatable, then it is called stochastic in nature.

called as SISO systems. Eg. Position control system

To achieve the required objective, a good control system must
satisfy the following requirements.
1. Accuracy:
 A good control system must be highly accurate.
 The open loop systems are generally less accurate and
hence feedback is introduced to reduce the error in the
system.
2. Sensitivity:
 A good control system should be very insensitive to
environmental changes, age etc. But, must be sensitive to
the input commands.
 The performance should not be affected by small changes in
the certain parameters of the system.
Requirement of good control system
61
3. External disturbance or noise:
 All the physical systems are subjected to external disturbances
and noise signals during operation.
 A requirement of a good control system is that system is
insensitive to noise and external disturbances but sensitive to
the input commands.
 It should be able to reduce the effects of undesirable
disturbances.
4. Stability:
 A concept of stability means output of system must follow
reference input and must produced bounded output for
bounded input.
 A good control system is one which is stable in nature.
5. Bandwidth:
 This requirement is related to the frequency response of the
system.
 For the input frequency range, it should give satisfactory output.
62
6. Speed:
 A system should have good speed. This means output
of the system should approach to its desired value as
quickly as possible.
 System should settled down to its final, value as
quickly as possible.
7. Oscillations:
 The system should exhibits suitable damping i.e. the
controlled output should follow the changes in the
reference input without unduly large oscillations or
overshoots.
 If either the output or some part of the output is returned to
the input side and utilized as part of the system input, then
it is known as feedback.
 Feedback plays an important role in order to improve the
performance of the control systems.
 Types of feedback:
1. Positive feedback
2. Negative feedback
POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE FEEDBACK
63
63
 Positive feedback
1. The positive feedback adds the reference input, R(s) and
feedback output. The following figure shows the block diagram
of positive feedback control system.
2. Consider the transfer function of positive feedback control
system is, T=
𝐺
1−𝐺 𝐻
(1)
Where,
T = the transfer function or overall gain of positive feedback
control system.
G is the open loop gain, which is function of frequency.
H is the gain of feedback path, which is function of frequency.
64
 Negative feedback
1. Negative feedback reduces the error between the reference
input, R(s) and system output. The following figure shows the
block diagram of the negative feedback control system.
2. Transfer function of negative feedback control system is,
T=
𝐺
1+ 𝐺 𝐻
(2)
Where,
T = the transfer function or overall gain of negative feedback
control system.
G is the open loop gain, which is function of frequency.
H is the gain of feedback path, which is function of frequency.
65
 Effect of Feedback on Overall Gain
 From Equation 2, we can say that the overall gain of
negative feedback closed loop control system is the ratio of
'G' and (1+GH). So, the overall gain may increase or
decrease depending on the value of (1+GH).
 If the value of (1+GH) is less than 1, then the overall gain
increases. In this case, 'GH' value is negative because the
gain of the feedback path is negative.
 If the value of (1+GH) is greater than 1, then the overall gain
decreases. In this case, 'GH' value is positive because the
gain of the feedback path is positive.
EFFECTS OF FEEDBACK
66
 In general, 'G' and 'H' are functions of frequency. So, the
feedback will increase the overall gain of the system in one
frequency range and decrease in the other frequency range.
 Effect of Feedback on Stability
 A system is said to be stable, if its output is under control.
Otherwise, it is said to be unstable.
 In Equation 2, if the denominator value is zero (i.e., GH = -
1), then the output of the control system will be infinite. So,
the control system becomes unstable.
 Therefore, we have to properly choose the feedback in order
to make the control system stable.
EFFECTS OF FEEDBACK
67
EFFECTS OF FEEDBACK
68
 Effect of Feedback on Noise
 To know the effect of feedback on noise, let us compare the
transfer function relations with and without feedback due to
noise signal alone.
 Consider an open loop control system with noise signal as
shown below.
 If input R(s) equal to zero.
 The open loop transfer
function due to noise
signal alone is

C(s)
N(s)
= 𝐺𝑏 (3)
69
 Consider a closed loop control system with noise signal as
shown below.
 The closed loop transfer function due to noise signal alone
is
C(s)
N(s)
=
𝐺𝑏
1+𝐺𝑎𝐺𝑏H
(4)
 It is obtained by making the other input R(s) equal to zero.
Compare Equation (3) and (4),
 In the closed loop control system, the gain due to noise
signal is decreased by a factor of (1+𝐺𝑎𝐺𝑏𝐻) provided
that the term (1+𝐺𝑎𝐺𝑏𝐻) is greater than one.
 A control system consists of an output as well as an input
signal. The output is related to the input through a function call
transfer function.
 Defination:
 A transfer function is expressed as the ratio of Laplace
transform of output to the Laplace transform of input
assuming all initial condition to be zero.
 Consider a system whose time domain block diagram is
 Now the transfer function G(s) is given by
 A transfer function (TF) relates one
input and one output.
TRANSFER FUNCTION
70
 Transfer function for any input is same for a given circuit and
it is convenient representation of a linear, dynamic model.
 While taking the Laplace transform for determining the
transfer function of a control system, it is assumed that all
initial condition concerning the differential equations are zero.
 The transfer function of a given system is a fixed quantity.
 The output of the system can be evaluated simply by taking
the inverse Laplace of the product of transfer function and the
given input. Therefore, output is given by
C(s) = G(s) x R(s)
 Then, output in the time domain can be evaluated by taking
inverse Laplace as
TRANSFER FUNCTION
71
 Why input, output and other signals are represented in Laplace
form in a control system:
 The input and output of a control system can be different types.
 For mathematical analysis of a system, all kinds of signal should
be represented in similar form.
 Properties of Transfer Function:
 The transfer function of a system is the Laplace transform of its
impulse response for zero initial conditions.
 The transfer function can be determined from system input-output
pair by taking ratio Laplace of output to Laplace of input.
 The transfer function is independent of the inputs to the system.
 The system poles/zeros can be found out from transfer function.
 The transfer function is defined only for linear time invariant
systems. It is not defined for non-linear systems. 72
73
 Advantages of Transfer function
1. If transfer function of a system is known, the response of the
system to any input can be determined very easily.
2. A transfer function is a mathematical model and it gives the
gain of the system.
3. The value of transfer function is dependent on the parameters of
the system and independent of the input applied.
4. Poles and zeroes of a system can be determined from the
knowledge of the transfer function of the system.
5. It helps in the stability analysis of the system.
6. Since it involves the Laplace transform, the terms are simple
algebraic expressions and no differential terms are present.
74
7. Integral and differential equations are converted to simple
algebraic equations.
8. System differential equation can be obtained by replacement
of variable ‘s’ by ‘d/dt’.
 Disadvantages of Transfer function
1. Transfer function does not take into account the initial
conditions, so effects arising due to initial conditions are
neglected. Hence initial conditions lose their importance.
2. The transfer function can be defined for linear systems only.
3. From transfer function, physical nature of the system
whether it is electrical, mechanical, thermal or hydraulic,
cannot be judged.
75
Procedure for determining the Transfer Function of a
control system:
 Write down the time domain equation for the system
introducing all the variables (using KCL &KVL).
 Taking the Laplace transform of the system equations,
assuming initial conditions as zero.
 Identify system input and output variables.
 Eliminating introduced variables get the resultant
equation in term of input and output variables.
 Lastly we take the ratio of the Laplace transform of the
output and the Laplace transform of the input which is the
required transfer function

 The Laplace transform can be used independently on different
circuit elements, and then the circuit can be solved entirely in the
S Domain (Which is much easier).
 Let's take a look at some of the circuit elements.
 Resistors are time and frequency invariant. Therefore, the
transform of a resistor is the same as the resistance of the resistor.
L{Resistor}=R(s)

  • 41. Linear Control System  The systems which follow the principle of homogeneity and additivity are called as linear control systems.  In order to understand the linear control system, we should first understand the principle of superposition. The principle of superposition theorem includes two the important properties as below:  Homogeneity: A system is said to be homogeneous, if we multiply input with some 41 41
  • 42. Linear Control System  Additivity: Suppose we have a system S and we are giving the input to this system as a1 for the first time and we are getting the output as b1 corresponding to input a1. On the second time we are giving input a2 and correspond to this we are getting the output as b2.  Now suppose this time we are giving input as a summation of the previous inputs (i.e. a1 + a2) and corresponding to this input suppose we are getting the output as (b1 + b2) then we can say that system S is following the property of additivity.  Eg. a purely resistive network with a constant DC source 42 42
  • 43.  Non-linear systems do not obey law of superposition.  The stability of non-linear systemsdependson root location as well as initial conditions & type of input.  Non-linearsystemsexhibit self sustained oscillations of fixed frequency. Eg. NON-LINEAR CONTROL SYSTEM 43 43

  • 46. Classification of Control System Time Varying Control System Time Invarying Control System CLASSIFICATION OF CONTROL SYSTEM 46 46
  • 47. Time varying/In-varying Control System  Systems whose parameters vary with time are called time varying control systems. It is not depend on whether input or output are function of time or not.  Eg. Driving a vehicle, mass is a parameter of space vehicle system. The mass of missile/rocket reduces as fuel is burnt and hence the parameter mass is time varying and the control system is time varying type.  If even though input or output are function of time but the parameters of system are independent of 47
  • 48. Time varying/In-varying Control System  Eg. Control system made up of inductor, capacitor, resistor only  Let x(t) and y(t) be the input and output signals, respectively, of a system shown in Fig. Then the transformation of into is represented by the mathematical notation y(t) = Tx(t)  where T is the operator which defined rule by which x(t) is transformed into y(t). A system is called time- invariant if a time shift in the input signal x(t-t0) causes the same time shift in the output signal y(t-t0). 48
  • 49. Classification of Control System Continuous data Control System Discrete data Control System CLASSIFICATION OF CONTROL SYSTEM 49 49
  • 50. Continuous/ Discrete Time/data Control System  If all the system variables are function of a continuous time t, then it is called as continuous data control system.  Eg. The speed control of a dc motor using tachogenerator feedback  A discrete time control system involves one or more variables that are known only at discrete time intervals.  Eg. Microprocessor or computer based systems use discrete time signals. 50
  • 51. Continuous/ Discrete Time/data Control System  Digital systems can handle nonlinear control systems more effectively than the analog type of systems.  Power requirement in case of a discrete or digital system is less as compared to analog systems.  Digital system has a higher rate of accuracy and can perform various complex computations easily as compared to analog systems.  Reliability of the digital system is more as compared to an analog system. They also have a small and compact size.  Digital system works on the logical operations which increases their accuracy many times. 51
  • 52. Classification of Control System Lumped Parameter Control System Distributed Parameter Control System CLASSIFICATION OF CONTROL SYSTEM 52 52
  • 53. Lumped / Distributed Parameter Control System  In these types of control systems, the various active and passive components are assumed to be concentrated at a point and that’s why these are called lumped parameter type of system.  Eg. R, L C parameters in electrical networks. Analysis of such type of system is very easy which includes differential equations.  In these types of control systems, the various active (like inductors and capacitors) and passive parameters (resistor) are assumed to be distributed uniformly along the length and that’s why these are called distributed parameter type of system.  Transmission line parameters R-L. Analysis of such type of system is slightly difficult which includes partial 53
  • 54. Deterministics/ Stochastic Control System  A control system is said to be deterministic when its response to input as well as behaviour to external disturbances is predictable and repeatable.  If the response to input is unpredictable and non- repeatable, then it is called stochastic in nature. SISO/ MIMO Control System  A system having only one input and one output is called as SISO systems. Eg. Position control system  A system having multiple input and multiple output is called as MIMO systems. Eg. Process control systems, all complex systems 54
  • 57. DC MOTOR SPEED CONTROL 57
  • 60. 60 To achieve the required objective, a good control system must satisfy the following requirements. 1. Accuracy:  A good control system must be highly accurate.  The open loop systems are generally less accurate and hence feedback is introduced to reduce the error in the system. 2. Sensitivity:  A good control system should be very insensitive to environmental changes, age etc. But, must be sensitive to the input commands.  The performance should not be affected by small changes in the certain parameters of the system. Requirement of good control system
  • 61. 61 3. External disturbance or noise:  All the physical systems are subjected to external disturbances and noise signals during operation.  A requirement of a good control system is that system is insensitive to noise and external disturbances but sensitive to the input commands.  It should be able to reduce the effects of undesirable disturbances. 4. Stability:  A concept of stability means output of system must follow reference input and must produced bounded output for bounded input.  A good control system is one which is stable in nature. 5. Bandwidth:  This requirement is related to the frequency response of the system.  For the input frequency range, it should give satisfactory output.
  • 62. 62 6. Speed:  A system should have good speed. This means output of the system should approach to its desired value as quickly as possible.  System should settled down to its final, value as quickly as possible. 7. Oscillations:  The system should exhibits suitable damping i.e. the controlled output should follow the changes in the reference input without unduly large oscillations or overshoots.
  • 63.  If either the output or some part of the output is returned to the input side and utilized as part of the system input, then it is known as feedback.  Feedback plays an important role in order to improve the performance of the control systems.  Types of feedback: 1. Positive feedback 2. Negative feedback POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE FEEDBACK 63 63
  • 64.  Positive feedback 1. The positive feedback adds the reference input, R(s) and feedback output. The following figure shows the block diagram of positive feedback control system. 2. Consider the transfer function of positive feedback control system is, T= 𝐺 1−𝐺 𝐻 (1) Where, T = the transfer function or overall gain of positive feedback control system. G is the open loop gain, which is function of frequency. H is the gain of feedback path, which is function of frequency. 64
  • 65.  Negative feedback 1. Negative feedback reduces the error between the reference input, R(s) and system output. The following figure shows the block diagram of the negative feedback control system. 2. Transfer function of negative feedback control system is, T= 𝐺 1+ 𝐺 𝐻 (2) Where, T = the transfer function or overall gain of negative feedback control system. G is the open loop gain, which is function of frequency. H is the gain of feedback path, which is function of frequency. 65
  • 66.  Effect of Feedback on Overall Gain  From Equation 2, we can say that the overall gain of negative feedback closed loop control system is the ratio of 'G' and (1+GH). So, the overall gain may increase or decrease depending on the value of (1+GH).  If the value of (1+GH) is less than 1, then the overall gain increases. In this case, 'GH' value is negative because the gain of the feedback path is negative.  If the value of (1+GH) is greater than 1, then the overall gain decreases. In this case, 'GH' value is positive because the gain of the feedback path is positive. EFFECTS OF FEEDBACK 66
  • 67.  In general, 'G' and 'H' are functions of frequency. So, the feedback will increase the overall gain of the system in one frequency range and decrease in the other frequency range.  Effect of Feedback on Stability  A system is said to be stable, if its output is under control. Otherwise, it is said to be unstable.  In Equation 2, if the denominator value is zero (i.e., GH = - 1), then the output of the control system will be infinite. So, the control system becomes unstable.  Therefore, we have to properly choose the feedback in order to make the control system stable. EFFECTS OF FEEDBACK 67

Compare Equation (3) and (4),  In the closed loop control system, the gain due to noise signal is decreased by a factor of (1+𝐺𝑎𝐺𝑏𝐻) provided that the term (1+𝐺𝑎𝐺𝑏𝐻) is greater than one.

The output is related to the input through a function call transfer function.  Defination:  A transfer function is expressed as the ratio of Laplace transform of output to the Laplace transform of input assuming all initial condition to be zero.  Consider a system whose time domain block diagram is  Now the transfer function G(s) is given by  A transfer function (TF) relates one input and one output.

  • 71.  Transfer function for any input is same for a given circuit and it is convenient representation of a linear, dynamic model.  While taking the Laplace transform for determining the transfer function of a control system, it is assumed that all initial condition concerning the differential equations are zero.  The transfer function of a given system is a fixed quantity.  The output of the system can be evaluated simply by taking the inverse Laplace of the product of transfer function and the given input. Therefore, output is given by C(s) = G(s) x R(s)  Then, output in the time domain can be evaluated by taking inverse Laplace as TRANSFER FUNCTION 71
  • 72.  Why input, output and other signals are represented in Laplace form in a control system:  The input and output of a control system can be different types.  For mathematical analysis of a system, all kinds of signal should be represented in similar form.  Properties of Transfer Function:  The transfer function of a system is the Laplace transform of its impulse response for zero initial conditions.  The transfer function can be determined from system input-output pair by taking ratio Laplace of output to Laplace of input.  The transfer function is independent of the inputs to the system.  The system poles/zeros can be found out from transfer function.  The transfer function is defined only for linear time invariant systems. It is not defined for non-linear systems. 72
  • 73. 73  Advantages of Transfer function 1. If transfer function of a system is known, the response of the system to any input can be determined very easily. 2. A transfer function is a mathematical model and it gives the gain of the system. 3. The value of transfer function is dependent on the parameters of the system and independent of the input applied. 4. Poles and zeroes of a system can be determined from the knowledge of the transfer function of the system. 5. It helps in the stability analysis of the system. 6. Since it involves the Laplace transform, the terms are simple algebraic expressions and no differential terms are present.
  • 74. 74 7. Integral and differential equations are converted to simple algebraic equations. 8. System differential equation can be obtained by replacement of variable ‘s’ by ‘d/dt’.  Disadvantages of Transfer function 1. Transfer function does not take into account the initial conditions, so effects arising due to initial conditions are neglected. Hence initial conditions lose their importance. 2. The transfer function can be defined for linear systems only. 3. From transfer function, physical nature of the system whether it is electrical, mechanical, thermal or hydraulic, cannot be judged.
