Neeche use hone wale har symbol ko parent note mein build kiya gaya hai, lekin jo tools sabse zyada kaam aate hain unhe yahan dobara state karte hain taaki pehli line bhi koi bhi padh sake:
Level 1 — Recognition
Exercise 1.1
Transfer function read off karo. ODE ke liye kya hai? Pole kahan hai?
Recall Solution 1.1
KYA karte hain: dono sides ka Laplace transform lete hain, replace karte hain. Zero initial conditions kyun: exact rule hai (yeh Laplace integral par integration by parts se aata hai). Yeh assume karke ki system se pehle rest mein tha, yaani , woh term gayab ho jaati hai aur derivative cleanly par map ho jaata hai. Yeh essential hai: transfer function sirf zero-state (forced) response describe karta hai, isliye hum deliberately initial-condition terms drop karte hain. Pole: denominator ko zero karo: . Kyun matter karta hai: pole par hai, real aur negative, toh impulse response ki tarah decay karta hai — stable (aur uska ROC imaginary axis contain karta hai).
Exercise 1.2
Impulse response identify karo. diya hai, kya hai?
Recall Solution 1.2
KYA karte hain: Laplace transform invert karte hain. Hum standard pair pehchante hain, yahan ke saath. Yeh pair kyun aur koi nahi: ka par single real pole hai, aur single real pole hamesha ek single decaying exponential mein invert hota hai jahan pole hai. Koi sine nahi, koi ramp nahi — woh complex ya repeated poles se aate hain. Causal (right-sided, ) inverse choose karne se ROC fix ho jaata hai.
Exercise 1.3
Delta ko pehchano. kya hai, aur isliye kya hai agar input unit impulse hai aur measured output transform hai?
Recall Solution 1.3
Step 1: Dirac delta function ki sifting property se. Step 2: kyunki aur , Kyun: delta feed karna exactly woh tarika hai jisse tum directly read off karte ho, kyunki se ho jaata hai.
Level 2 — Application
Exercise 2.1
ODE se solve karo. ka impulse response nikalo aur confirm karo ki .
Recall Solution 2.1
Step 1 (Laplace world mein): use karte hain ke saath, . Step 2 (time par wapas): for (ROC ). Step 3 ( check): . ✓ Check kyun kaam karta hai: directly mein dalo: . Zyada generally, first-order system ka hota hai, jiska impulse response se start hota hai — yahan ( ka coefficient), toh .
Exercise 2.2
Convolution se step response. ke liye unit step input (for ) ke saath, use karke compute karo.
Recall Solution 2.2
KYA karte hain: impulse response ko input ke saath convolve karte hain, causal limits se use karte hue (dekho Convolution). Causal limits tab valid hain kyunki dono signals right-sided ROC mein rehte hain. Step: substitute karo, ; jaise , : Sanity check: jaise , , DC gain. ✓
Exercise 2.3
Do derivatives. ke liye aur nikalo.
Recall Solution 2.3
Step 1: . Step 2 (partial fractions): nikalo jahan . Cover-up: , . Partial fractions kyun: har simple pole ek exponential mein invert hota hai, lekin sirf tab jab hum fraction ko single-pole pieces mein split kar lein. Step 3 (invert karo):
Level 3 — Analysis
Exercise 3.1
Poles se stability classify karo. Har ke liye stable / marginal / unstable decide karo: (a) , (b) , (c) .
Recall Solution 3.1
System stable hai agar aur sirf agar har pole ka ho (imaginary axis ke strictly left mein). Figure teen cases ko complex plane par marks ke roop mein plot karta hai taaki tum verdict dekh sako: green crosses (a) shaded left half-plane mein baithe hain, yellow crosses (b) bilkul vertical imaginary axis par baithe hain, aur red cross (c) par forbidden right half-plane mein ghus jaata hai.
(a) poles . Real part → stable (damped oscillation). (b) poles . Real part → marginal (pure oscillation jo kabhi decay nahi karta). (c) , poles aur . Ek pole ka → unstable ( ki tarah blow up karta hai).

Exercise 3.2
Underdamped ring analyse karo. ke liye , , , aur nikalo.
Recall Solution 3.2
KYA karte hain: standard form se match karo. Coefficients compare karo: ; . Kyunki hai toh yeh underdamped hai. Damped frequency: Impulse response (parent ka underdamped pair): kyun: , toh decay rate exactly hai — jo poles ke real part se match karta hai jo 3.1(a) se hai. Figure yeh fingerprint dikhata hai: blue curve hai jo par oscillate kar raha hai, yellow dashed envelope se hugged hai jiska decay rate wahi hai jo pole ka real part hai. Ring khatam ho jaata hai, toh system stable hai — tum stability literally shrinking envelope se read kar sakte ho.

Exercise 3.3
Pole crossing ka effect. mein, kis real ke liye system unstable hai? par kya hota hai?
Recall Solution 3.3
Poles: . Real part stability govern karta hai.
- Agar : ke liye poles hain, real part → stable. ke liye, dono roots real aur negative hain (unka product , sum ) → stable.
- Agar : poles , real part → marginal (undamped sinusoid, koi decay nahi).
- Agar : real part ban jaata hai → unstable. Conclusion: ke liye unstable; par marginal; saare ke liye stable. Damping term ki sign hi poori kahani hai.
Level 4 — Synthesis
Exercise 4.1
Pole location design karo. Plant (ek pure integrator, ) sirf marginal hai. Hum proportional feedback wrap karte hain (toh ). choose karo taaki closed-loop pole par ho. Phir closed-loop impulse response do.
Recall Solution 4.1
Feedback kya karta hai: ko mein substitute karo: (Forced response ke liye, reference se closed-loop transfer function hai.) Dekho Feedback control systems. Pole choose karo: hum chahte hain, toh set karo. Closed-loop impulse response: , . Yeh punchline kyun hai: ek open-loop marginal system (pole at ) pure feedback gain choose karke stabilise ho jaata hai; bada pole ko aur left push karta hai (faster decay) — exactly woh GNC idea jo parent ke double-integrator remark mein hai.
Exercise 4.2
Double integrator stabilise karo. Ek spacecraft ka attitude angle — use kaho, woh angle jitna vehicle apni target orientation se rotated hai — follow karta hai (unit inertia par torque ; , dono poles par — dekho Guidance Navigation and Control (GNC)). PD control apply karo. Closed-loop characteristic polynomial nikalo aur par poles ke liye choose karo.
Recall Solution 4.2
Yahan woh output hai jise hum zero par steer karna chahte hain, uski rate (angular velocity) hai, aur commanded torque hai. Step 1 (loop close karo): se milta hai Characteristic polynomial: . Step 2 (target poles): hum roots chahte hain. Un roots ke saath polynomial banao: Step 3 (coefficients match karo): , . P alone kyun nahi, PD kyun: pure se milta hai, poles — abhi bhi marginal (undamped oscillation). Derivative term damping supply karta hai ( coefficient), poles ko imaginary axis se hataata hai stable left half-plane mein. Position feedback akele damp nahi kar sakta; rate feedback bhi chahiye.
Level 5 — Mastery
Exercise 5.1
Full pipeline: ODE → → → step response → stability verdict. Is ke liye (a) aur uske poles nikalo, (b) nikalo, (c) Laplace se step response nikalo (input , ), (d) final value aur stability verdict do.
Recall Solution 5.1
(a) Transfer function & poles. Poles: . Dono ka . Yahan aur ( se), toh , .
(b) Impulse response. Pair se match karo ke saath: (Kyunki hai, koi division nahi chahiye.)
(c) Laplace se step response. ke saath: Partial fractions . Multiply out: .
- : .
- coeff: .
- coeff: . Toh . Second term ko ke upar rewrite karo: , toh Term by term invert karo ( aur use karke):
(d) Final value & verdict. Jaise , terms gayab ho jaate hain: par poles ka negative real part hai → stable, ek underdamped decay DC gain ki taraf. (Stability imaginary axis ko ROC ke andar rakhti hai, toh ek valid number hai jo read kiya ja sakta hai.)
Exercise 5.2
Design + verify. Ek GNC channel ka plant hai, jiska output phir se attitude angle hai (target se rotation). PD control use karke, gains choose karo taaki closed loop ka aur ho (critically damped, no overshoot). Phir repeated pole aur impulse response state karo.
Recall Solution 5.2
Closed-loop char. poly: Ex 4.2 se, . se match karo:
- .
- . Poles: → repeated pole (critically damped). Impulse response: , aur pair use karke ke saath: Critically damped kyun: overshoot (, ringing) aur sluggishness () ke beech boundary hai; response target tak as fast as possible pahunchta hai bina oscillate kiye — settling manoeuvre ke liye ideal. Repeated real pole shape produce karta hai: rise karta hai, peak karta hai, phir decay karta hai.
