CONTROL SYSTEMS
Time Response Control
System
Objective
To analyse response of a system model
with different types of inputs:
Once the dynamic of a system is represented using a
mathematical model, a control engineer will need to
analyse the model by giving some input signal and
study the output response of the system.
