Control System
• A system Controlling the operation of another system.

Nonlinear system
• Nonlinear systems are systems that are “Not Necessarily Linear.”
• When the input and output has nonlinear relationship the system is
said to be nonlinear.
Types of Control System
Continuous and Discrete Systems
x(t) continuous
y(t)
time (CT)
discrete
x[n] y[n]
time (DT)
• In continuous control
system, all system
variables are function of
a continuous time t.
• A discrete time control
system involves one or
more variables that are
known only at discrete
time intervals.

Time invariant vs Time variant
• When the characteristics of the system do not depend upon time
itself then the system is said to time invariant control system.
