Control System
  A combination of various elements connected as a unit to
direct or regulate itself or any other system in order to provide
a specific output is known as a Control system. We know
controlling is basically known as the act of regulating or
directing.
 So control system is used to direct the functioning of a
physical system to carry out the desired objective.

Need for a Control System
Control systems are considered as one of the major aspects of our
growing technology. Every sector of the industry is linked with the
control system in some or the other way.

Like in space technology, power system,


transportation system, robotics, machine tool
controlling etc., everything needs controlling.
So these are basically control systems.

Practically every aspect of our day – to- day


activities is affected by some type of control
systems.
Components Of Control System
 Majorly the control system is divided into two major domains:
• Controlled process: The part of the system which requires
controlling is known as a controlled process or plant.
• Controller: The internal or external element of the system that
controls the process is known as the controller.
 Further, some other aspects are as follows:
• Input: For every system to provide a specific result, some excitation signal
must be provided. This signal is usually given through an external source. So,
the externally provided signal for the desired operation is known as input.
• Output: The overall response of the system achieved after application of the
input is known as output.
Types Of Control System
Control Systems can be classified as open loop control systems
and closed loop control systems based on the feedback path.

•In open loop control systems, output is not fed-back to the input. So, the
control action is independent of the desired output.
•In closed loop control systems, output is fed back to the input. So, the control
action is dependent on the desired output.
Control Systems can be classified as SISO control systems and MIMO control
systems based on the number of inputs and outputs present.

•SISO (Single Input and Single Output) control systems have one input and one
output. Whereas, MIMO (Multiple Inputs and Multiple Outputs) control
systems have more than one input and more than one output.

Examples of control system
applications
 Potential applications of control of these
systems benefits the following areas
• Machine tools : Improve precision and
increase productivity by controlling
chatter.
• Flexible robotics : Enable faster motion
with great accuracy.
• Process control : For example , on\off
shape control of solar reflectors or
aerodynamic surfaces .
• Aerospace applications : Aircraft or
missile guidance and control space
vehicles and structures
