After applying input to the control system, output takes certain time to
reach steady state. So, the output will be in transient state till it goes to a
steady state. Therefore, the response of the control system during the
transient state is known as transient response.
The transient response will be zero for large values of ‘t’. Ideally, this
value of ‘t’ is infinity and practically, it is five times constant.
STEADY STATE RESPONSE
• The part of the time response that remains even after the transient response has zero
value for large values of ‘t’ is known as steady state response. This means, the transient
response will be zero even during the steady state.
• Example
• Let us find the transient and steady state terms of the time response of the control
system c(t)=10+5e−t
• Here, the second term 5e−t
• will be zero as t denotes infinity. So, this is the transient term. And the first term 10
remains even as t approaches infinity. So, this is the steady state term.
STANDARD TEST SIGNALS
• The standard test signals are impulse, step, ramp and parabolic. These
signals are used to know the performance of the control systems using
time response of the output.
DIFFERENT TYPES OF TEST SIGNALS.
• The unit impulse response, c(t) is an exponential decaying signal for positive values of
‘t’ and it is zero for negative values of ‘t’.
THE UNIT RAMP RESPONSE, C(T) FOLLOWS THE UNIT RAMP INPUT SIGNAL FOR ALL
POSITIVE VALUES OF T. BUT, THERE IS A DEVIATION OF T UNITS FROM THE INPUT
SIGNAL.
• Parabolic Response of First Order System.
