LAB QUESTIONS

Question no.1: What is required to represent a system in state space?

Answer:
To represent a system in state space State equations, an output equation, and an
initial state vector (initial conditions) are required.
Question no.2: Give two reasons for modeling systems in state space.
Answer:
1. It can model systems other than linear constant coefficients.
2. It can be used for digital simulation.
Question no.3: State an advantage of the transfer function approach over the state-
space approach.
Answer:
The major an advantage of the transfer function approach over the state-space
approach is that it yields qualitative insight.
