  • In the transfer function model, initial conditions are assumed to be zero. In the state-space model, transfer function is not the starting point for the system analysis, and it considers the initial conditions of the system.
  • The transfer function for the system is unique.
  • The transfer function is applicable only for linear time-invariant systems. The state-space model is applicable to linear time-variant systems also.
  • State-space representation of a system is not unique, it may have more than one representation.
  • State model can be derived from transfer function of the system.
