Control Systems Lecture 1: Introduction Dr. Mohammed Gulam Ahamad
What is Control System? A system Controlling the operation of anOther system. A system that can regulate itself and anOther system. A control System is a device, or set of devices tO manage, command, direct or regulate the behaviour of other device(s) or system(s).
Input OF Set point or reference • If a disturbance is generated within the system, it is called internal disfurbonce. While an external disturbance is generated outside the system. Definitions Controlle Manipulated Variable Output Or (ontrolled Variable Process Disturbances— A disturbance is a signal that tends tO adversely affect the value of the system. It is an unwanted input of the system.

Types of Control System Adaptive Control System The dynamic characteristics of most control systems are not constant for several reasons. The effect of small changes on the system parameters is attenuated in a feedback control system. An adaptive control system is required when the changes in the system parameters are significant.
