2.1 Control

"A control system is considered to be any system which exists for the purpose of regulating or controlling the flow of energy, information, money, or other quantities in some desired fashion" - W.L.Brogan, Modern Control Theory, 1991.

Figure 2-1 Control system.

The principle objective of control is to force the system output to accurately follow an input.

Table 2-1 Characteristics of a good control system.
Term Definition/Explanation
Stability Stability is the quality, state, or degree of being stable. In order for a system to be stable, the gain and phase margins need to be positive.
Steady State Accuracy How close the output is to the desired input. The closer the output is to the input the better the steady state accuracy is.
Satisfactory Transient Response A transient response shows how the system behaves when it is taken out of equilibirum. Ideally, the system should not deviate from the steady state.
Satisfactory Frequency Response A frequency response displays the output of a system in terms of magnitude and phase as a function of frequency.
Reduced Sensitivity to Disturbances Disturbance in control systems signify any unwanted or unexpected inputs that alter the system's output which cause an increase in the system error.
