Course Content:
Introduction to control systems. Linear system models: transfer function, block diagram and signal
flow graph (SFG). State variables: SFG to state variables, transfer function to state variable and state
variable to transfer function. Feedback control system: Closed loop systems, parameter sensitivity,
transient characteristics of control systems, effect of additional pole and zero on the system response
and system types and steady state error. Routh stability criterion. Analysis of feedback control
system: Root locus method and frequency response method. Design of feedback control system:
Controllability and observability, root locus, frequency response and state variable methods. Digital
control systems: introduction, sampled data systems, stability analysis in Z-domain.

Learning Outcomes:
