INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS:
This experiment is titled Steady state error and system types. The objective of this experiment is for us to learn to determine the steady state error of a system given a step, ramp and a parabolic input.
On the first part of the experiment, we are given a block diagram of a system with a unit step. We calculated the value of Kp and the steady state error in different values of n. We have done it correctly. Next is that we the different values that we got from three different values of n and also got three graphs and here we obtained the value of e() of each graph.
On the second part of the experiment, we are given a block diagram of a system with a unit ramp input. Same as we did in the first part, we calculated for the values of Kp and the steady state error for three different values of n.
Then we also get three graphs from the three different outputs. Also the e() of each graph was computed.
Third part is also same with what we do in first and second part, the only difference is the given block diagram of system is with unit parabolic input. Everything is all the same,
Lastly the given block diagram has an unknown k and we are going to find the value of k and draw its output graph. We are able to obtain the correct output and got the value of k which is 54.
CONCLUSION
Steady state error of the system is the difference between the steady-state output values to the reference input value at steady state. When a unit-step function is input to a system, the steady state value of that system is the output value at time . Since it is impractical (if not completely impossible) to wait till infinity to observe the system, approximations and mathematical calculations are used to determine the steady-state value of the system.
The unit step function is a highly important function, not only in control systems engineering, but also in signal processing, systems analysis, and all branches
of engineering. If the unit step function is input to a system, the output of the system is known as the step response.
A unit ramp is defined in terms of the unit step function, as such: [Unit Ramp Function]
It is important to note that the unit step function is simply the differential of the unit ramp function:
Notice also that the unit parabolic input is equal to the integral of the ramp function:
