23.1 : 瞬态和稳态响应

In control systems that deal with gradual changes, a ramp function is an effective test signal.

When a system faces sudden disturbances, a step function serves as a good test signal. For systems exposed to shock inputs, an impulse function is most suitable.

Test signals aid in designing control systems that exhibit two key performances. The transient response represents the system's behavior as it transitions from its initial state to its final state, while the steady-state response describes the system's behavior after the transient period has subsided.

Absolute stability determines whether a system is stable or unstable. Equilibrium is maintained in a system without disturbances or inputs.

A linear time-invariant control system is stable if it returns to equilibrium post an initial condition. It's critically stable if output oscillations continue indefinitely and unstable if the output diverges endlessly from equilibrium.

Due to energy storage in physical control systems, the output cannot immediately follow the input, leading to a transient response before reaching a steady state.

If the steady-state output doesn't match the input, the system has a steady-state error, indicating the system's accuracy.
