Since the system is of 2nd order, the continuous time system will always be stable if KP , KR , K, Jv
are all positive.
Now, consider that the continuous data system is subject to sampled data control as shown
in Figure 3.

For stability
Choice of K and T : If we plot K versus T then according to conditions (1) and (3) the
stable region is shown in Figure 4. Pink region represents the situation when condition (1)
is satisfied but the (3) is not. Red region depicts the situation when condition (1) is satis-
fied, not the (3). Yellow is the stable region where both the conditions are satisfied. If we

want a comparatively large T , such as 0.2, the gain K is limited by the range K < 5. Similarly
if we want a comparatively high gain such as 25, we have to go for T as small as 0.08 or even less.
From studies of continuous time systems it is well known that increasing the value of K gen-
erally reduces the damping ratio, increases peak overshoot, bandwidth and reduces the steady
state error if it is finite and nonzero.
• A root in negative real axis of s-plane produces an output exponentially decaying with
time.
Digital control systems should be given special attention due to sampling operation. For ex-
ample, if the sampling theorem is not satisfied, the folding effect can entirely change the true
response of the system.

Figure 5: Pole zero map and natural response of a second order system
If the system is subject to sampling with frequency ωs < 2ω1 , it will generate an infinite
number of poles in the s-plane at s = σ1 ± jω1 + jnωs for n = ±1, ±2, ........ The sampling
operation will fold the poles back into the primary strip where −ωs /2 < ω < ωs /2. The net
effect is equivalent to having a system with poles at s = σ1 ± j(ωs − ω1 ). The corresponding
plot is shown in Figure 6.

Insignificant roots
s-plane z-plane
In s-plane the insignificant roots can be neglected provided the dc-gain (0 frequency gain)
of the system is adjusted. For example,
10 1
≈ 2
(s2 + 2s + 2)(s + 10) (s + 2s + 2)
In z-plane, roots near the origin are less significant from the maximum overshoot and damping
point of view.
However these roots cannot be completely discarded since the excess number of poles over
zeros has a delay effect in the initial region of the time response, e.g., adding a pole at z = 0
would not effect the maximum overshoot or damping but the time response would have an
additional delay of one sampling period.
The proper way of simplifying a higher order system in z-domain is to replace the poles near
origin by Poles at z = 0 which will simplify the analysis since the Poles at z = 0 correspond to
pure time delays.
