BM1301 BIOCONTROL SYSTEMS

AIM
By studying various control systems modelling techniques, time response analysis and frequency response analysis, biological control systems can be analysed and understood.

OBJECTIVES
• To study system concept and different mathematical techniques applied in analysing any given system.
• To learn to do the analysis of given system in time domain and frequency domain.
• To study the techniques of plotting the responses in both domain analysis.
• To apply these analysis to study the biological systems.
