Abstract In this document we will apply the theory of the
transfer function to obtain the transfer function of the subsystem
of the Azimuth Antenna and then we will obtain the final block
diagram.
I. INTRODUCTION

The transfer function of any system can be represented as the
output of the system (desired variable) over the input data. In other
words, the transfer function of a system is a mathematical
representation of the relation between input and output and it is
represented with the formula:

G(s) = X
i
(s)/X
o
(s)

Where X
i
(s) represents the output and X
o
(s) the input of the
linear system (sometimes this system is also time-invariant). As we
had told before, the Transfer Function give us a relationship between
input and output data of any system, this systems can be electric
circuits, simple systems, systems with gears, electro-mechanic
systems.

This is the most common way to get the Transfer Function, but
we also can obtain the Transfer Function with the direct derivation
of differential equations, using Laplace transforms, with signal
processing and with the useful Theory of the Masons Rule.


II. OBTAINING THE TRANSFER FUNCTION.

Figure 1.- Electro-mechanical system.

We can see in Figure 1 the schematic diagram of an
electromechanical system. The next step is the obtaining of
the transfer function. To do this, we need to have some
schematic parameters that depends on the configuration (we
will use configuration 2).

Figure 2.- Schematic parameters.


Figure 3.- Subsystems of the electro-mechanical system.

Now we need to apply the theory of the transfer
function to get the T.F. of the subsystems and finally join all
to the final T.F.
We start with the input and output potentiometers (is
the same T.F.), the relationship is given by:

Now, the pre amplifier and the power amplifier are given
respectively by:

With all the subsystems done we can now obtain the T.F.
between the armature displacement and the armature voltage.

And finally we can obtain the Block Diagram:



III. CONCLUSIONS
The Transfer function is important part of any system because
it gives us important information about the system. There are many
ways to get the T.F. and this is important because in some cases we
cant apply some rules and we need others in order to obtain T.F.
The relation between input and output is useful because we can have
an idea of what we are working with.
