I t gives me immense pleasure to bring out the sixth edition of my book which
over the last 22 years has become immensely popular with the faculty as
well as the students who are pursuing undergraduate programs and also those
students who are appearing in the professional examinations like GATE, IES,
etc. The sixth edition has been thoroughly revised and restructured to ensure
that it is student-friendly. Problems which already existed have been suitably
clubbed under new chapters for easier understanding of the topics. New prob-
lems have been added in each chapter to make the concepts more clear and to
give the students extra problem-solving practice. Chapter on feedback and its
effect on system performance has been added. Nyquist stability criterion
chapter has been fully revised and the explanation for each problem in this
chapter will ensure better assimilation. Chapter 1 has been revised and the
concept of drawing block diagrams for practical systems have been explained
in a very simple way. Students must know how to recognize controllers, pro-
cesses/plants and feedback elements of various types of control systems. I am
sure that the explanation of the basics will lay the foundation for the control
system subject in totality and make understanding of the other related topics
easier.
It will be my endeavour to keep on improving the book in the coming years
and the faculty and students will be seeing new editions of this book shortly. I
plan to include design problems with case studies in my future editions. My aim
is to ensure that this book is error-free. My students in Amity University have
helped me a lot in pointing out typing/spelling errors and I owe a lot to them. I
will be grateful to all the readers of this book to point out such mistakes in
future also. I will acknowledge their efforts suitably.
I thank my publishers, CBS Publishers & Distributors, in supporting my
efforts. Ours have been a very long association and hope this bond will last
forever.

Preface to the Fifth Edition
I t gives me immense pleasure in bringing out the fifth edition of this book which
has the patronage of the student community all over India. The main endeavour
of this book is to make available a series of worked exercises to assist students to
prevail over difficulties in understanding and correlating with the theory. The
objective has been not to just present an assortment of problems with solutions,
but by means of straightforward preparatory problems leading to intricate ones,
introduce the students to the fundamentals of control engineering. In keeping
with the aim, this edition has been compiled in a fashion to ensure the following:
• Step-by-step mathematical explanation for better understanding.
• Basics are explained in simple language.
• All possible variations to the principles of control engineering have been
explained and illustrated by solving different problems.
• The problems and their solutions are listed in the order of difficulty and
complexity.
• Step-by-step explanation will help the students in saving time which can be
devoted elsewhere, fruitfully.
• Most of the problems have appeared in different examinations. This will
help the students gain more confidence in tackling the examinations.
• Essential theory included under each chapter in the beginning is to ensure
that students do not refer to any textbook for cross reference. It will also
help students to immediately correlate to various graphical illustrations depicted
in the theory portions.
• To keep the size and cost of the book within realistic limits, introductory
material in the form of indispensable theory to each chapter contains only
the vital features of the topics.
I once again thank CBS Publishers & Distributors and their publishing staff for
providing help and support. I sincerely hope that this edition of the book will be
as popular as the previous ones.

Preface to the Fourth Edition
A decade has passed and with the extreme cooperation from the students
and the publisher, I present the fourth revised edition. The book has been
thoroughly revised, especially the chapter on “Root-locus”. Basic essential
theory on sensitivity has been added in the fourth chapter. In addition, impor-
tant solved problems in each chapter have been incorporated.
I have no doubt that the fourth revised edition, with minimum errors will
help the readers to assimilate the subject better.

I t is a matter of happiness for me that within a short span of seven years this
book has become immensely popular and the students have benefited after
reading it. It has been my endeavour to improve the book constantly. Keeping
this in view, I have revised the third edition by adding most essential theory
which will help students to assimilate the subject better.
I have no doubt that the present revised edition will be liked by all the
readers.
