(Linear Real systems are inherently nonlinear. (Linear systems do not exist!) systems do not exist!) Ex.Ex.f(tf(t)=)=Kx(tKx(t), ), v(tv(t)=)=Ri(tRi(t))TF models are only for linear timeTF models are only for linear time--invariant (LTI) invariant (LTI) systems.systems.Many control analysis/design techniques are Many control analysis/design techniques are available for linear systems.available for linear systems.Nonlinear systems are difficult to deal with Nonlinear systems are difficult to deal with mathematically.mathematically.Often we Often we linearizelinearizenonlinear systems before nonlinear systems before analysis and design.
