Introduction: Measurement Systems
 It is required to develop mathematical tools that will
allow us to quantitatively analyze measurement
systems.

(Bentley, 1993)
Introduction
Two types of mathematical tools:
1) Time Domain Analysis
- Time domain analysis examines the amplitude vs.
time characteristics of a measuring signal.
2) Frequency Domain Analysis

- Frequency domain analysis replaces the measured
signal with a group of sinusoids which, when added
together, produce a waveform equivalent to the
original.
- The relative amplitudes, frequencies, and phases
of the sinusoids are examined.
Time Domain Analysis
 In time-domain analysis the response of a
dynamic system to an input is expressed as a
function of time c(t).
 It is possible to compute the time response of
a system if the nature of input and the
mathematical model of the system are
known.
 The time response of a system can be
obtained by solving the differential eq.
governing the system.
 Alternatively, the response c(t) can be
obtained from the transfer function of the
system and the input to the system
 For a closed loop transfer function,
C(s)/R(s)= G(s)/[1+G(s)H(s)]
 Response in s-domain,
C(s) = R(s)*M(s)
 Response in t-domain,
c(t) = InvLap[C(s)]
Time Domain Specifications
For specifying the desired performance

characteristics of a measurement control system.
These characteristics of a system of any order
may be specified in terms of transient response
to a unit step input signal.
The response of a second order system for a
input is,
C (s ) wn2
= 2
R (s ) s + 2zwn s + wn2
1 Delay time 2 Rise time

3 Peak time 4 Peak overshoot
5 Settling time 6 Steady-state error
1. Delay time : It is the time required for the response to
reach 50% of the final value in first attempt.
2. Rise time : It is the time required to rise from 0 to
100% of the final value for the under damped system.
3. Peak time : It is the time required for the response to
reach the peak of time response or the peak overshoot.
4. Settling time : It is the time required for the response
to reach and stay within a specified tolerance band ( 2%
or 5%) of its final value.
5.Peak overshoot : It is the normalized difference between
the time response peak and the steady output and is
defined as,
6. Steady-state error: It indicates the error between the

actual output and desired output as ‘t’ tends to infinity.
 Introduction
 Advantages
- Stability of closed loop system can be

estimated
- Transfer function of complicated systems can
be determined experimentally by frequency
tests
- Effects of noise disturbance and parameter
variations are relatively easy to visualize.
- Analysis can be extended to certain nonlinear
control systems.

Frequency Domain Specifications
1 Resonant Peak- Maximum value of the closed
loop transfer function.
2 Resonant Frequency- Frequency at which
resonant peak occurs.
3 Bandwidth- range of frequencies for which the
system normalized gain is more than -3db.
4 Cut-off rate- It is the slop of the log-magnitude
curve near the cut off frequency.
5 Gain Margin- The value of gain to be added to
system in order to bring the system to the verge
of instability.
6 Phase Margin- Additional phase lag to be added
at the gain cross over freq. in order to bring the
system to the verge of instability.
Frequency Response Plots
Frequency domain analysis of a system can be

carried either analytically or graphically.
The various graphical techniques are

1 Bode Plot
2 Polar Plot
3 Nichols Plot
4 M and N circles
Frequency response plots are used to determine

the frequency domain specifications, to study the
stability of the system.
Example- Measurement from a Solar panel

Summary
Every measurement system require analysis of

its features or performance to work as a system.
Time domain analysis gives the behaviour of the

signal over time. This allows predictions and
regression models for the signal.
Frequency Analysis is much easier. Some

equations can't be solved in time domain while
they can be solved easily in frequency domain.
