TIME DOMAIN ANALYSIS

Chapter 3
Time Domain Analysis
• Time domain analysis analyses the system response
given by the system for the applied excitation which is the
function of time
• Analysis means how the system response varies w.r.t.
time for a given input
Time Response
• The response given by the system which is function of the
time to applied excitation, is called time response.

Transient Response Ctr(t):
• The output variation during the time it takes to achieve its
final value is called as transient response.
• The time that is required to achieve the final value is
called transient period,
• The transient response is defined as that part of the time
response that goes to zero as time becomes large.
Steady State Response
• It is the part of the time response which remains after
complete transient response has vanished from the
system output.
• The steady state response, when compared with the input
or the desired response indicates the final accuracy of the
system.
• The difference is the steady state error.

Standard Reference signals
• Until now, we have developed a mathematical model of a
system from its physical laws andrepresented by a block
diagram.
• But we should relate theory to practice. But in practice
many signals are available which are the functions of time
and can be used as reference inputs,
• for various control systems. These signals are step,
ramp, parabolic and impulse inputs etc.
• These signals are most commonly used as reference
inputs and are defined as standard test signals.
Step Input
• The most widely used input is the step input or function in
testing dynamic behaviour of control system. Fig. 4.2
shows a step input.

Step Input
Ramp Input
• From t ≥ 0 the value of the function rises uniformly at a
constant rate B, called the slope of the ramp, as shown
• in Fig. 4.3.

Parabolic Input
Impulse Signal
• A unit impulse is defined as a signal which has zero value
everywhere except at t = 0, where its magnitude is finite.

Impulse Input
• Mathematically
Time Domain Specifications
• Characteristics of a transient response arising from the
nature of oscillation. They are, for a unit step function
• (i) delay time td,
• (ii) rise time tr,
• (iii) peak time tp,
• (iv) maximum overshoot Mp and
• (v) settling time ts.
Time Domain Specifications
Delay time td
• It is the time for the response to reach half (50%) of its
final value.
Rise Time
• It is the time required by the step function response to reach from 10
to 90% or 0 to 100% of its final value (steady state).
• For undamped systems, 0 to 100% is used and
• for overdamped systems 10 to 90% rise time is used.

Peak time tp
• It is the time taken by the controlled system to reach the
peak of the first overshoot.
Maximum overshoot Mp
Settling time ts:
• It is the time required by the system to reach and settle
within a prescribed percentage of the final or steady value
