ID_X is your Student ID digits relevant X statistic

Analyze

1) The impulse response of the system

2) The stability of the system
3) The controllability and observability of the system
4) The Bode diagram of the system
5) The root locus method application in this system

3) SUBJECT 3 (25%)
Given the system

where,
G(s) = (ID_mean*s+ID_sum_two_maxdigits)/(ID_sumofdigits*s 2+ID_median*s1+ID_variance2)
H(s) =
(ID_median*s+ID_sum_three_mindigits)/(ID_sum_two_maxdigits 2*s2+ID_mean*s1+ID_sumofdigits2)

Find
1) The steady errors of the given system
2) Analyze the stability and design a proper PID controller to improve its stability characteristics

4) SUBJECT 4 (25%)
Given the circuit

For the above circuit, after assigning unique values to R1, R2, C1, C2, L based only on the following
pool of 5 ID_X statistics, where ID_X is your Student ID digits relevant X statistic,
ID_sumofdigits, ID_median, ID_variance, ID_maxdigit, ID_sum_two_maxdigits
1) Apply the signal flow graph and Mason rule to estimate the transfer function of the above circuit
with respect to Circuit_Out= IR2, Circuit_In = e0
2) Estimate the state space model and the relevant transfer function
3) Find the differential equation modelling the above circuit
4) After finding the relevant transfer function zero all coefficients of order more than 2 in this
transfer function. Calculate then, the frequency response, the time domain and frequency domain
specifications of the resulting system as well as its parabolic time response.
