Study Notes

Controllability and Observability

  • Controllability and observability are two major concepts in modern control system theory.

Controllability

  • A system is controllable if every state variable can be affected or controlled in finite time by some unconstrained control signal.
  • The system must be able to be controlled to achieve desired outcomes.

Observability

  • A system is observable if every state variable eventually affects some of the outputs of the process.
  • The system must be able to be observed to understand its internal behavior.

Importance of Controllability and Observability

  • Controllability is necessary to make the system do what we want.
  • Observability is necessary to see what is going on inside the system.
