TRANSIENT RESPONSE ANALYSIS TIME RESPONSE + TIME RESPONSE of a system is defined as the behavior of a system under the effect of an input which is assumed to be applied at ¢=0 with zero initial conditions. + TIME RESPONSE consists of two parts: 1. Steady-state response ; The manner in which the system behaves as ¢> 00. 2. Transient response _ : The part of response between initial state and final state. * Inthe analysis and design of control systems, a common basis of comparison exist for the transient performances of various systems. This is usually done by using particular test input signals and comparing the responses. used in most transient } commonly response used analysis + For Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) systems, if the response to any one of these test inputs is given, the others can be obtained.
