Abstract—This paper proposes additional steps to the traditional design procedures for continuous control systems using operational amplifiers. Designing an analog Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) controller is selected as a case study. The controller in the s-domain is firstly designed based on the mathematical model of the plant to be controlled, and then simulated and adjusted. Next, the plant and the controller in the s-domain will be converted to equivalent corresponding continuous electronic circuits using operational amplifiers and continued for simulating. The main purpose of these proposed additional steps is to confirm that converting the controller from s-domain to corresponding analog electronic circuits using operational amplifiers is correct or not. After that, the controller will be implemented and applied to the real setup. For a good design, the simulation results of the resulting controlled system in s-domain, also in equivalent analog electronic circuits, and experimental results in the real setup are almost the same.
