580 Chapter 10 Frequency Response Techniques ‘We have seen that the open-loop frequency response curves can be used not only to determine whether a system is stable but to calculate the range of loop gain that will ensure stability. We have also seen how to calculate the gain margin and the phase margin from the Bode diagrams. Is it then possible to parallel the root locus technique and analyze and design systems for transient response using frequency response methods? We will begin to explore the answer in the next section. 10.8 Relation Between Closed-Loop Transient and Closed-Loop Frequency Responses Damping Ratio and Closed-Loop Frequency Response In this section, we will show that a relationship exists between a systems transient response and its closed-loop frequency response. In particular, consider the second- order feedback control system of Figure 10.38, which we have been using £0, since Chapter 4, where we derived relationships between the closed-loop ° transient response and the poles of the closed-loop transfer function, 9 _ 745) oe (10.49) FIGURE 10.38 Second-order closed-loop Ray 7°) ~ 35 to Fak We now derive relationships between the transient response of Eq.

Substituting 5 = jw into Eq, (10.49), we evaluate the magnitude of the closed-loop frequency response as M = |T(jo) (10.51) ‘A representative sketch of the log plot of Eq, (10.51) is shown in Figure 10.39. ‘We now show that a relationship exists between the peak value of the closed- loop magnitude response and the damping ratio. Squaring Eq.

Equation (10,52) shows that the maximum magnitude on the frequency response curve is directly related to the damping ratio and, hence, the percent overshoot. Also notice from Eq. (10.53) that the peak frequency, ay, is not the natural frequency.

ANSWER: copy = 5.79 radis ‘The complete solution is at www.wiley.comicollege/nise. In this section, we related the closed-loop transient response to the closed-loop frequency response via bandwidth. We continue by relating the closed-loop fre- quency response to the open-loop frequency response and explaining the impetus. 10.9 Relation Between Closed- and Open-Loop Frequency Responses Atthis point, we do not have an easy way of finding the closed-loop frequency response from which we could determine M, and thus the transient response.” As we have seen, ‘we ate equipped to rapidly sketch the open-loop frequency response but not the closed- loop frequency response. However, i the open-loop response is related to the closed- loop response, we can combine the ease of sketching the open-loop response with the transient response information contained in the closed-loop response. ago PDF Enhancer Constant M Circles and BRR N EREs Consider a unity feedback system whose closed-loop transfer function is Gs) 76) =o, aos7) The frequency respoase ofthis closed Loop function is 70) = oe (10558) Since G (ja isacomplexnumber, let G(jo) = P(w) + jQ(w)inEq, (10.58), which yields ___ Plo) +i0%@) 7009) TRG) 10) 0) Tuerefore, Pa) + Ow) M = |T*(jeo)| =" 10.60) Pie = EE (10.60) Eq.
