Control and System
• Control is the process of causing a system
variable (e. temperature, position) to conform
to some desired value or trajectory .
Example: driving a car implies controlling the vehicle to
follow the desired path and arrive safely at a planned
destination
System:
Electrical, Mechanical,
Hydraulic, Pneumatic,
Biological, Thermal, etc…
• If you drive the car yourself, you are performing a manual control of the car.
If you design a machine (or use a computer) to do it, then you build an
automatic control system
Figure 1.7 (a) Automobile steering control system. (b) The driver uses the difference between
the actual and the desired direction of travel to generate a controlled adjustment of the steering
wheel. (c) Typical direction-of-travel response.
A manual control system for regulating the level of fluid in a tank by adjusting the output valve. The operator views the level of fluid
through a port in the side of the tank.
Can be
grouped into
three sections
Objective: design a
system to regulate the
blood sugar
concentration of a
diabetic by controlling
dispensing of insulin
Variable to be controlled is
blood glucose concentration
Figure 1.23 The blood glucose and
insulin levels for a healthy person.
Figure 1.24 (a) Open-loop (without feedback) control and (b) closed-loop control of blood glucose.
• Primary objectives:
1. Dynamic stability
2. Accuracy
3. Speed of response
• Additional considerations:
4. Robustness (insensitivity to parameter variation)
5. Cost of control
6. System reliability
