INTRODUCTION
The concept of modelling, analysis and design of control systems
discussed, so far was based on their transfer functions which suffer from
some drawbacks as stated below.
(i) The transfer function is defi ned only under zero initial conditions.
(ii) It is only applicable to linear time-invariant systems and generally
restricted to single input single output (SISO) systems.
(iii) It gives output for a certain input and provides no information about the
internal state of the system.
To overcome these drawbacks in the transfer function, a more generalised
and powerful technique of state variable approach in the time domain was
developed. The state variable method of modelling, analysis and design is
applicable to linear and non-linear, time-invariant or time varying multi-
input multi-output (MIMO) systems. The placement of closed-loop poles for
improvement of system performance can be done with state feedback.
