Ece - 41003 Linear System 2017-2018 Academic Year 2 Semester

This document provides an introduction to linear systems and control theory. It describes open-loop and closed-loop control systems. An open-loop system controls a process directly without feedback, while a closed-loop system uses feedback of the output measurement to compare to the desired output and reduce any error via the controller and actuator. Closed-loop systems can reject disturbances and noise better than open-loop. Multiple feedback loops, multivariable systems, and an automobile steering example are also discussed.

Teacher – Dr. Pyone Ei Ei Shwe


Purpose
• This lecture provides an introduction to the basic history of control
theory and practice. The purpose of this lecture is to describe the general
approach to designing and building a control system.
 An open-loop control system utilizes an actuating device to control the process
directly without using feedback.

 A closed-loop control system uses a measurement of the output and feedback of
this signal to compare it with the desired output (reference or command).
 Error is adjusted by the controller.
 Output of controller causes the actuator to modulate the process to reduce error.

 Closed-loop control has many advantages over open-loop control including
the ability to reject the external disturbances and improve measurement noise
attenuation.
 External disturbances and measurement noise are inevitable in real-world
applications and muse be address in practical control system designs.
