Disturbances
A disturbance is a signal that tends to adversely
The
plant (or process, or controlled system) g2 is
the system, subsystem, process, or object
controlled by the feedback control system.
The controlled output c is the output variable of the
plant, under the control of the feedback control
system.
The forward path is the transmission path from the
summing point to the controlled output c.
The feed forward (control) elements , are the
components of the forward path that generate the
control signal U or m applied to the plant. Note:
Feed forward elements typically include
controller(s), compensator( s) (or equalization
elements), and/or amplifiers.
The control signal U (or manipulated variable m) is
the output signal of the feed forward element
applied as input to the plant .

Transfer function
The transfer function of a linear, time-invariant,
particular block.
Cascade Blocks
When several systems or control blocks are
connected in cascaded manner, the
transfer function of the entire system will
be the product of transfer function of all
individual blocks. Here it also to be
remembered that the output of any block
will not be affected by the presence of
other blocks in the cascaded system.
Cascade Blocks
Parallel Blocks
When same input signal is applied different
blocks and the output from each of them are
added in a summing point for taking final
output of the system then over all transfer
function of the system will be the algebraic
sum of transfer function of all individual blocks.
Parallel Blocks
Feedback Loops
Positive feedback loops enhance or amplify changes;
