Open Loop Description
In the open-loop control system, a reference input is given to the system in order to get the desired output. But the
achieved output is not considered by the system for further reference input.
In this figure here represents the block diagram of
an open-loop control system.
Here as we can see that the system consists of
two blocks, one is the controller while other is
controlled process.
Basically, according to the required output, an
input is provided to the controller of the system.
Depending on the achieved input, the controller
generates the control signal which is fed to the
processing unit. Thus according to the control
signal, proper processing is performed and output
is achieved.
But as there is no feedback path present in the system, thus whether the achieved output is desired or not
the input has nothing to do with it.
So, this is the reason we say that in an open-loop system the input is independent of the output.

Example with Transfer Function
We all are aware of the operation of a traffic light controller present at various road crossings.
Basically the three signals generated by the controller is time-dependent. An internal timing is provided to the
controller at the time of designing the system. So, when the traffic signal controller is installed at the crossing
then each signal is displayed by the controller timely, independent of the rush present on any of the side.
Basically relays are used to provide timing sequence to the system.
In this figure clearly indicates that whatever output is achieved, the input will remain independent of it.
We know transfer function is given as:
When we separately consider the transfer function of each block then it will be given as:
The use of the open-loop control system indicates that the operator of the system is ready to consider

some minimal deviation in the output from the expected value.

Closed-Loop Control System Definition:
A closed-loop control system is a type of control
system in which the controlling action shows
dependency on the generated output of the
system. In simple words, in these systems, the
output of the system controls the input applied to
the system.
The variation in input according to the output leads
to produce more accurate system output. Thus
controllability in the closed-loop system is achieved
through the output generated by utilizing a
feedback path.
Now the controlling provided to the system can be either output independent or output dependent. This
variation leads to give two different categories of control system.
A system in which controlling action is independent of the generated system output is known as open-loop
control system. While in a closed-loop system, the produced output controls the functioning of the system by
the used of feedback

Transfer Function of Closed-Loop Control System
Transfer function indicates the behaviour of the system as it is
defined as the mathematical relation between the input and
output of the system.
The gain of the system defines the ratio of output to input. Thus
we can say the output of the system is the product of transfer
function and input.
So, for the above-given system figure:,

For a unity feedback system (i.,e H(s) = 0) with a high value of gain. The transfer function is unity.
Close Loop Advantages And Disadvantages
Advantages: Disadvantages:
Closed loop control systems are Closed loop control systems are
more accurate even in the costlier and complex
presence of non-linearities The feedback in the closed loop
The sensitivity of the system may system may lead to oscillatory
be made small to make the response
system more stable The feedback reduces the overall
The closed loop systems are less gain of the system
affected by noise. Stability is the major problem in
the closed loop system and more
care is needed to design a stable
closed loop system.
