Questions and Answers

What characterizes an open-loop system?

  • It adjusts its input based on the output conditions.
  • It uses feedback to modify its output.
  • It generates output based on input without any feedback. (correct)
  • It requires continuous monitoring of the output.

Which statement is NOT true about an open-loop system?

  • It operates independently of the output.
  • It does not rely on feedback information.
  • It can correct its output based on performance. (correct)
  • It directly generates output for a given input signal.

In an open-loop system, which of the following is primarily involved?

  • Feedback loops and sensors.
  • Continuous evaluation of output.
  • Output adjustments based on performance.
  • Input signals and processing. (correct)

Study Notes

Open-loop Systems

  • Operates without feedback
  • Directly generates output in response to an input signal

Closed-loop Systems (Feedback Control Systems)

  • Maintain a prescribed relationship between system variables
  • Uses the difference between desired and actual outputs to control system behavior

Properties of Closed-loop Systems

  • Good regulation against disturbances
  • A component or process to be controlled can be represented graphically
  • The input-output relationship represents the cause-and-effect relationship of the process
  • The process transforms the input signal into a desired output signal
