AIM
To model the RLC circuits by Model Based System Design (MBSD) approach using
MATLAB Simscape.
DESCRIPTION
In this experiment, model-based system design of the RLC circuits are briefed in detail.
The practice exercise provides hands on experience in the design ofSeries RLC Band pass and
Band Stop filter. In RLC circuit, the most fundamental elements of a resistor, inductor and
capacitor are connected with the voltage supply. All of these elements are linear and passive in
nature. Passive components are ones that consume energy rather than producing it; linear
elements are those which have a linear relationship between voltage and current.
There are number of ways of connecting these elements across voltage supply, but the
most common method is to connect these elements either in series or in parallel. The RLC
circuit exhibits the property of resonance in same way as LC circuit exhibits, but in this circuit
the oscillation dies out quickly as compared to LC circuit due to the presence of resistor in the
circuit.
PRE- REQUISITE
Simulation Tools:
MATLAB Simscape
Simulink Test
Simulink Requirements
Simulink Model Checks
PRACTICE EXERCISES
EXERCISE 1:
Modelling of Series RLC Circuit
1. Consider the simple RLC circuit shown in Figure 1.
Requirement Specification
The Figure 4 addresses the requirements linked to the designed Series RLC Band
Pass filter
The Figure 5 addresses the requirements linked to the designed Series RLC Band
stop filter
6. Create the Test Harness and Test Sequence for the RLC model and debug the
errorsdetected during the simulation run.
Test Harness is used to a program or model by running it under varying
conditions and monitoring its program or model behavior and outputs.

Figure 6, 7,8 and 9 shows the Test sequences and Test harness developed for
Serie RLC Band Pass- Band Stop filter
7. Add each Requirement to each distinct test plan created for the model.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
The students are able to implement the basiccircuit using Model based design method in
MATLAB Simscape.
Utilize the tools used for model-based system design approach in MATLAB.
EXERCISE2
The RLC circuits are used asbandpass filter, band stop filter, high pass filter and lowpass filter
also in various applications such as variable tuned circuit, voltage multiplier, pulse discharge
and oscillators etc. Due to this wide range of application the performance of these component
as an RLC circuit have to be understood before use.
The methodology used in this experiment will reduce the cost of design also reduce the cost of
maintenance, making it economical and affordable.
CONCLUSION
In this experiment, designed the Series RLC circuits in Model Based System Design (MBSD)
approach based upon the proposed requirements and modelled using MATLAB Simscape.
