y2(t).

(i). By selecting proper state variables, write state equations for the system given in figure
1.
(ii). Represent the state equations in standard matrix form and clearly show the matrices
A, B, C, and D. (Use standard notation)
(iii). Derive an expression for the zero-input response of the given system in terms of
component values (R1, R2, C1 and C2)
(iv). Develop an algorithm to find the zero-input response of the system for a period of T =
(0 to T seconds). Calculation step size should not be less than T/100. You may
interpret your algorithm using a flow chart.
Q3. In a testing laboratory, the system given in figure 01 need to be simulated for its
response. Imaging that, as the research engineer, you have been asked to simulate the
system using computer software. Given that R1 = 1000 , R2 = 100 , C1 = 0.1 F and
C2 = 0.1 F.
(i). Using MATLAB write a program to plot the zero input response of the system. You
may use the algorithm developed in Q2 part 4 and simulation parameters given in
table 1
(ii). Use the lsim function in MATLAB to get the complete response of the system for
following inputs. (See references for details)
a. Step input, initial conditions VC1(t) = 0V, VC2(t) = 0V
b. Sinusoidal input, initial conditions VC1(t) = 0V, VC2(t) = 0V
Answer for Q1 part (ii) With suitable diagrams, explain the terms.
Answer for Q2 part (iv) Describe the algorithm using the flow chart.
Answer for Q3 part (ii) Present the complete response of the circuit.
Self-reflection Use of MATLAB in LTIC systems analysis. Discuss the advantages and
give at least two real world examples of benefits of state space analysis in electrical
engineering.

In MATLAB, a LTIC system can be interpreted in state space. In order to handle the system,
it is required to enter system data (A, B, C, D matrices) to the workspace. The command ss
can be used for that. Once the system data is entered there are number of ways to analyze the
system response. In this assignment we are using the lsim function which gives the
complete response of a LTIC system. Go through the online help of Mathworks for the above
mentioned commands or simply type >>help lsim and help ss in the command line, for in-
software help.
