Advantages of unit impulse signal
- Unit impulse response provides an easy ways for the mathematical computations.
- For the system analysing and modeling , we almost use the unit impulse signal.
- This can be helpful for the calculation of the transfer function.
- It can be served as an analytical tool for the differential equations.
- Shifting property of the unit impulse signal makes the impulse signal as a sampling function . Sampling function can be used for the analyze of the system easily.
- Unit impulse response be an important tool for the determination of spectrum and frequency compenents of the continuous and discrete signals.
Unit Impulse Signal in Control System
In this article, we are going to learn about the unit impulse signal in control systems. We know that a signal is a source of information that varies with time, space, temperature, and other independent variables. We can also define a signal as a function that conveys information about a phenomenon or a process. There are two types of signals continuous time domain signals that are defined for every instant of time and discrete time domain signals that are defined for discrete time instants. Standard signals are the signals that are used to know the performance of the control systems using the time response of the output. These signals have the known form of the mathematical expression. Standard signals are impulse, step, ramp, parabolic, and sinusoidal. Unit impulse signal is also one of the standard signals. Let us now discuss about the impulse and unit impulse signal in detail.
