INTERPRETATION

The second module deals with Systems Generation, Retrieval and Interconnection. The
first part of the activity was to generate a transfer function given the inputs. The first command
being used is the “sys command. It is used to designate the given system. There are different
ways to approach in acquiring the transfer function depending on the system required. What I
had used was using the function “num” and “den factor. But there is also the option of using
zeroes and poles and gain, using matrix/ces, steady-state and frequency and response. Being
said, it will arrive with the same output equivalent. In order to get the desired solution, the
input values should be in order. Zeroes and poles should be in the exact arrangements and
values with its given corresponding sign. Using matrices however, requires proper location of
values for every cell in order MATLAB can consider. If one is to use the frequency and response,
one should not forget to input the imaginary value of “i” or “j”.

The next part of the module was about retrieving the data from the given transfer
function. Given the time function from the module, it will show all the possible data categories
can be retrieved, again depending on what was needed by the system. This part of the module
is the easiest part.

For the third part of the module, what was needed is to determine the overall transfer
function from the given specified block diagram. The diagram shows a system of functions or
equations with corresponding values showing a flow of information. The flow of each member
function or block can be simplified into three factors: series, parallel and feedback. The arrow
shows the flow and thus gives the category of what operation (if it’s a series, parallel, feedback)
operation to be used in simplifying the system. With a system, comes the input and output
values. The sequence must be correct form to obtain the desired output, otherwise the system
will have an error, or error as shown in the command box. We are instructed to start from the
inner part of the system and work outward in solving the system, the same process in analyzing
dc/ac connections.

The last part of the module was the RLC circuit. This part was given to us as a
homework. We are to use the command function from what was learned in the previous part of
the module. We are to create a function that will output all the systems needed. With that,
transfer function is needed, and it can be obtained through MATLAB. This part was a trial and
error.

CONCLUSION

By the end of the 2nd Module we can characterize systems using forms of systems
representation, system transformation and system interconnection. The coefficients of the
numerator and the denominator is used to the given transfer function, whereas the output
system can be determined. The system can be determined using the zeroes, poles, and gains,
by identifying first all the unknowns and using the “zpk” command, the system can be
converted into a transfer function.

Using the “ss” command, matrices can be converted into a transfer function. The
command “ss” simply means, “steady state”. I have learned how to retrieve data given the
transfer function. Sometimes, a system needs representations and often makes it easier when
there is a diagram. The block diagram contains the transfer functions and must obtain them.
Firstly, it is important to know the process first, if it’s a series, parallel of a feedback flow. And
for the last part, the RLC circuit was determined using MATLAB and applying what has learned
from the module itself.
