Zero-input and Zero-state response

Transient Response Analysis

The zero-input response of a system is the response obtained when the input is identically zero. Such response need not be zero, because there may be initial charges on the capacitors and / or the initial fluxes in the inductors.

ZERO-INPUT RESPONSE

The zero-input response of a system is the response obtained when the input is identically zero. Such response need not be zero, because there may be initial charges on the capacitors and / or the initial fluxes in the inductors.


ZERO-STATE RESPONSE

Zero-state response is the response obtained for an arbitrary input when all initial conditions are identically zero.

For a linear system, the complete response is equal to the sum of zero-input and zero-state response.
