Feedback 2 Flashcards
The idealized instantaneous behavior that we would like from the system
Desired Response
The gradual change in the system as it approaches its approximation of the desired response
Transient Response
The response of the system once it has finished changing and is now approximating the desired response
Steady-State Response
The difference between the input and the output of the system
Error
The difference between the steady-state response and the desired response
Steady-State Error
The ability of the system to settle into a steady-state response
Stability
The part of the system that generates the input to the plant or process being controlled
Controller
A system that does not monitor its output; can not correct for disturbances
Open-Loop
A system that monitors its outputs and makes corrections to reduce error
Closed-Loop
A signal that is not modelled or calibrated in the system leading to corruption of the expected behavior
Disturbance
A system inserted into the controller to improve performance
Compensator
A path that allows signals from the output of some sub-system to flow back and affect the input of some sub-system earlier in the system signal path
Feedback
A system that will still work as expected with changes to the system parameters, as might be caused by wear of components, or a change in behavior with temperature
Robust
Consists of analysis and design of control systems’ configurations
Control Systems Engineering or Control Engineering
Is the investigation of the properties of an existing system
Analysis
