Introduction
Open Loop and Closed Loop Control in MATLAB
In control systems, there are two fundamental types of control: Open
Loop and Closed Loop. Understanding these concepts is essential for
designing efficient systems. MATLAB, with its tools such as Simulink,
provides a platform for simulating and analyzing both types of systems.
1. Open Loop Control in MATLAB
Definition of Open Loop Control: An open loop control system is one
that directs inputs without any feedback from outputs. In this type of
system, the output does not influence input decisions, meaning the
system operates according to a predefined model without adjustment
based on performance results.
Key Characteristics:
1. No Feedback:
o The output is not measured or monitored, so inputs are not adjusted
based on results.
2. Simplicity of Design:

o Open loop control systems are often simple, making them easy to
implement. They require fewer components compared to closed loop
systems.
3. Reliance on the Model:
o The accuracy of the system depends on the precision of the
mathematical model used. Any error in the model will directly affect
performance.
4. Limited Applications:
o Used in applications that do not require high accuracy, such as
simple automation or repetitive processes.

3. Complexity:
o Requires a more complex design, including sensors and control
mechanisms, which can increase costs.
4. Response Control:
o The presence of feedback can improve the speed of response and
the stability of the system.
