Abstract
This chapter is an introduction to control systems defined as a collection of interconnected elements whose goal is to achieve a desired response even when external disturbances are present. In this book, both continuous-time and discrete-time control systems will be dealt and its constitutive functional elements such as sensor, controller and actuator will also be described. Practical applications of biomedical control engineering techniques and advanced information technology are also included so as to show the potential both of analog control and of computer control systems.
