CHARACTERISTIC EQUATIONS AND FUNCTIONS PART – A (2 Marks)

{(C(s)} = -1

{(R(s) G(s))/ (1+G(s) H(s))}

2. What is transient and steady state response?

The transient response is the response of the system when the input changes from one state to another. The response of the system at t=∞ is called steady state response

3. Name the test signals used in time response analysis.

Step signal, ramp signal, parabolic signal sinusoidal signal and impulse signal

4. Define step signal.

The step signal is a signal whose value changes from 0 to A and remains constant at A for t>0 The mathematical representation of step signal is r(t) = A u(t), where u(t) = 1 fort≥0 and u(t) =0 for t<0.

5. Define Ramp signal and parabolic signal.

A ramp signal is a signal whose value increases linearly with time from an initial value of zero at t=0. It is mathematically represented as r (t) = A t, where fort≥0 and r (t) =0 for t<0.

A parabolic signal is a signal in which the instantaneous value varies as square of the time from an initial value of zero at t=0.It is

mathematically represented as r (t) = A.t /2 for fort≥0 and r (t) =0 for t<0.

6. What is an impulse signal?

A signal which is available for very short duration is called impulse signal. Ideal impulse signal is a unit impulse signal which is defined as a signal having zero values at all-time except at t=0. At t=0, the magnitude becomes infinite.

7. How is system classified depending on the value of damping(ε)?

Undamped system (ε=0), under damped system (ε<1), critically damped system (ε=1) and over damped system (ε>1)

8. What is damped frequency of oscillation?

10. List the time domain specifications.

11. Define rise time.

Rise time is the time taken for response tom raise from 0% to 100% for the very first time.

12. Define delay time..

Delay time is the time taken for response to reach 50% of the final value, for the very first time.

13. Define peak time.

It is the time taken for the response to reach the peak value for the very first time. It is the time taken for the response to reach the peak overshoot, Mp

14. What is steady state error?

The steady state error is the value of the error signal e (t), when (t) tends to infinity.

15. What are static error constants?

The Kp, Kv and Ka are called static error constants. The se constants are associated with steady state error in a particular type of a system and for a particular input.

16. What are generalized error constants?

They are the coefficients of generalized error series. They are also called as dynamic error coefficients.

17. List the advantages of generalized error constants.

Generalized error series gives error signal as a function of time. Using generalized error constants, the steady state error can be determined for any type of input. But static error constants are used to determine steady state error when the input is any one of the standard input.
