Introduction
• A control system consists of subsystems and
processes (or plants) assembled for the
purpose of obtaining a desired output with
desired performance, given a specified input.

• Input represents the desired output


Introduction
• Elevator example: while at first floor, we
intend to reach fourth floor.
• Our input is the press of fourth floor button
that represents the desired output
Introduction
• Two performance measures:
– the transient response
– the steady state error
Introduction
• Control systems are build for four primary
reasons:
– Power amplification
– Remote control
– Convenience of input form
– Compensation for disturbances
Introduction
• Configurations of control systems
– Open-loop control system
– Closed-loop control system
Introduction
• Open-loop control system

• Example: heating system


– Output variable = temperature
– Controller = consisting of fuel valves and electrical
system that operates these valves
Introduction
• Open-loop control system

• Disadvantage:
– Cannot compensate for any disturbances both at
the input and the output of the system
– Example: mechanical systems
Introduction
• Closed-loop control system

• Overcomes the disadvantages of open-loop


systems
– Sensitivity to disturbance and
– Inability to correct them
Introduction
• Advantages of closed-loop systems
– Accurate than open-loop systems
– Less sensitive to noise, disturbances and changes
in environment
Introduction
• Conclusion
– Systems that perform measurement and
correction are called closed-loop or feedback
control systems
– Systems that do NOT perform measurement and
correction are called open-loop
Introduction
• Analysis and Design of a control system
– Analysis: process by which system’s performance
is determined e.g. transient response and steady
state error.
– Design: process by which system’s performance is
created or changed.
Introduction
• Analysis and Design Objectives
1. Producing the desired transient response
2. Reducing steady-state error
3. Achieve stability
Introduction
• Stability
Total response = natural response (homogeneous
solution) + forced (particular solution) response
– Natural response is the response to initial
conditions. It is only dependent on the system and
NOT the input.
– Forced response (also known as zero-state) is the
response to a particular input but with no initial
conditions.
Introduction
• Stability
– Natural response should eventually approach zero
leaving behind forced response only
– In some cases/systems, the natural response does
not decay and starts to grow such that a point
comes where it dominates the forced response
leading to instability.
– Control systems must be designed such that the
natural response decays to zero as time
approaches infinity or oscillates.
Case Study: Position Control System
• A position control system converts a position input
command to a position output response
• Let’s look at the an antenna azimuth position control
system.
• Azimuth is an angular measurement in spherical
coordinate system (radial distance r, polar angle θ,
azimuthal angle φ).
Case Study: Position Control System
• Goal: azimuth angle output of antenna,
follows the input angle of the potentiometer
Case Study: Position Control System

Detailed Layout

Schematic
Case Study: Position Control System

• Input transducer (potentiometer) converts angular input


into voltage
• Output transducer (potentiometer) converts output
angular displacement to a voltage
Case Study: Position Control System

• Controller: the power and signal amplifier


amplifies/boost the difference between input and output
voltages. The amplified actuating signal drives the
plant/process.
• Controller essentially provides gain
Case Study: Position Control System

• Goal is to make error between input and output zero.


– Input and output match-> zero error-> motor does not turn.
– Big input and output difference->big error->larger input voltage
to motor->motor spins faster and vice versa
Case Study: Position Control System
• Response for low and high gain values
Case Study: Position Control System
• So we have discussed the transient response,
what about steady state response?
• Steady State Error(SSE) is indicative of steady
state response.
• SSE is the difference between input and output
after transients have disappeared.
• In some systems SSE is NOT zero because:
– Gain is not sufficient and
– Increasing gain may lead to trade-off between desired
transient and steady state responses.
– Can be resolved with a dynamic controller also known
as compensator but are more complex.
Control System Design Process

Step 1
• Requirements of position control system:
– Position the antenna remotely
– Description of weight and physical dimensions
• Design specifications:
– Transient response
– Steady state error
Control System Design Process

Step 2
• Translate qualitative description into functional
block diagram
– Includes functions such as input transducer and
controller, as well as possible hardware description
such as amplifiers and motors.
Control System Design Process

Step 3
• Create a schematic
– Includes assumptions about different parts as well as the
load
– Heavily depends on knowledge of physical system,
physical laws governing the systems and practical
experience
Control System Design Process

Step 4
• Develop a mathematical model using schematic
– Includes the use of physical laws such as KVL and KCL for
electrical networks and Newton's law for mechanical system
along with assumptions to mathematically model the system.
– Model using differential equation, transfer function or state
space representation. Both define the relationship between
input and output of a dynamical system.
Control System Design Process

Step 5
• Reduce multiple blocks into a single block with
mathematical description representing the
system from its input to output.
Control System Design Process

Step 6
• Analysis and Design
– Analysis is done to see if response specifications and
performance requirements are met.
– Standard test input signals (details in next slide) are
used to verify design.
