OPEN AND CLOSED LOOP SYSTEMS
PART A (2 MARKS)
1) What is feedback? What type of feedback is employed in control system?
The Feedback is a control action in which the output is sampled and a proportional signal is
given back to the input for automatic correction of any changes in desired output.

The transmittance is the gain acquired by the signal when it travels from one node to the
node in signal flow graph.

UNIT III
CHARACTERISTIC EQUATIONS AND FUNCTIONS
PART – A (2 Marks)
1. What is time response?
It is the output of the closed loop system as a function of time. It is denoted by c(t).It is
given by inverse of Laplace of product of input and transfer function of the system.
C(t) = L-1{(C(s)} = L-1{(R(s) G(s))/ (1+G(s) H(s))}
The phase margin (ϒ) is the amount of additional phase lag at the gain cross over frequency w gc
21. How will you find the root locus on real axis?
To find root locus on real axis, one test point is to be chosen on real axis. If the total number
of poles and zeros on the real axis to the right of this test point is odd number, then, the test
point lies on the root locus. If it is even, then, the test point does not lie on the root locus.
22. What are asymptotes? How will you find the angle of asymptotes?
Asymptotes are straight lines which are parallel to root locus going to infinity and meet
the root locus at infinity.
Angle of asymptotes = {±180 ((2.q) +1)/ (n-m)}
N= number of poles= number of zeros and q= 0, 1, 2, 3, ……………. (n-m)
