SAMPLE PROBLEM
PROBLEM SET 1.1: MATLAB BASED TUTORIALS: MODELING/ANALYSIS OF LINEAR
SYSTEMS.
Problem: 1:Consider

the

closed-loop

system

in

figure.

Develop

ab

m-file

accomplish the following tasks.

(a) Determine the closed-loop transfer function T(s) = Y(s)/R(s)

(b)Plot the closed-loop system response to an impulse input R(s)
= 1, a unit step input R(s) = 1/s, and a unit ramp input R(s) =
1/s2. Use the subplot function to display the three system
responses.

A single loop unity feedback system
