SYSTEMS AND REPRESENTATION
Basic elements in control systems: – Open and closed loop systems – Electrical analogy of
mechanical and thermal systems – Transfer function – AC and DC servomotors – Block diagram
reduction techniques – Signal flow graphs.
Time response: – Time domain specifications – Types of test input – I and II order system response –
Error coefficients – Generalized error series – Steady state error – Root locus construction- Effects of
P, PI, PID modes of feedback control –Time response analysis.
Frequency response: – Bode plot – Polar plot – Determination of closed loop response from open
loop response - Correlation between frequency domain and time domain specifications.
STABILITY AND COMPENSATOR DESIGN
Characteristics equation – Routh Hurwitz criterion – Nyquist stability criterion- Performance criteria –
Effect of Lag, lead and lag-lead compensation on frequency response-Design of Lag, lead and laglead
compensator using bode plots.
Concept of state variables – State models for linear and time invariant Systems – Solution of state
and output equation in controllable canonical form – Concepts of controllability and observability.
