Lecture 1 - Feedback Control System

A set of devices or mechanisms that manage, regulate, or manipulate the behavior of a dynamic system to achieve desired outcomes.

These systems play a crucial role in various fields, ranging from engineering and technology to economics and biology.

___________ are designed to ensure that a system's output folllows a desired reference or responds apppropriately to changing conditions.

The primary objective of a control system is to maintain the desired state or performance of a system by continuously monitoring its behavior and adjusting its inputs or parameters as necessary.

This involves measuring the system's output, comparing it to a desired reference, calculating the error (the difference between the actual output and the desired output), and then applying control actions to minimize this error.

• True

• False

This figure represents what type of feedback system?

• Open Loop (Open Feedback System)

• Closed Loop (Closed-Loop Feedback System)

This figure represents what type of feedback system?

• Open Loop (Open Feedback System)

• Closed Loop (Closed-Loop Feedback System)

In an ____________, the control action is determined based solely on the input and doesn't take into account the system's output or actual performance.

• Open Loop (Open Feedback System)

• Closed Loop (Closed-Loop Feedback System)

This type of control system lacks feedback, so it can be less accurate and reliable in dealing with uncertainties or disturbances.

• Open Loop (Open Feedback System)

• Closed Loop (Closed-Loop Feedback System)

In an ___________, there is no feedback mechanism that allows the system to adjust its behavior based on the actual results or conditions.

• Open Loop (Open Feedback System)

• Closed Loop (Closed-Loop Feedback System)

List the characteristics of an open-loop control system.
