1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4

An unwanted input signal that affects the system s output signal. The difference between the desired output,R (s ),and the actual output,Y (s ) A system without feedback that directly generates the output in response to an input signal. The error when the time period is large and the transient response has decayed,leaving the continuous response. The ratio of the change in the system transfer function to the change of a process transfer function (or parameter) for a small incremental change. The response of a system as a function of time. A system with a measurement of the output signal and a comparison with the desired output to generate an error signal that is applied to the actuator. A measure of the structure, intricateness, or behavior of a system that characterizes the relationships and interactions between various components. The parts, subsystems, or subassemblies that comprise a total system. An attribute of a system that describes a tendency of the system to depart from the equilibrium condition when initially displaced. A reduction in the amplitude of the ratio of the output signal to the input signal through a system, usually measured in decibels.
