Overview

This lecture introduces transfer functions as a tool for analyzing feedback systems using frequency response and Bode plots. The lecture uses the example of a spring, mass, damper system to show how transfer functions can be used to compute the frequency response of an interconnected system of components. We also define poles and zeros and indicate how they affect the frequency response of a system. Finally, we introduce the general computations of block diagram algebra.
