For the output to track the input with a steady-state delay 100 × 10–6 sec, it
is necessary that

R

This gives R = 10 k W ; C = 0.1 mF
Steady-state error = 10 t - (10 t – 10t )

q i = kv x
The perturbation equation is
K v (q H - q C ) x(t) = Q q i (t )

or, x(t) = Kq i (t ); K = Q / [ K v (q H - q C )]
The tank obeys the equations

The PI control scheme increases the order of the system; this makes it less
stable.
The feedforward scheme does not affect the characteristic roots of the
system. A difficulty with feedforward compensation is that it is an open-
loop technique; it contains no self-correcting action. If the value of Kc is not
accurately known, the gain Kf will not cancel the disturbance completely.
The usefulness of a method must be determined in the light of the specific
performance requirements. If the uncertainty is large, self-correcting action
can be obtained by using PI control law in conjunction with the feedforward
compensation.

CHAPTER 5 CONCEPTS OF STABILITY AND THE ROUTH


STABILITY CRITERION

5.1 (a) All the elements in the first column of the Routh array are +ve.
Therefore, all the roots are in the left-half plane.
(b) Two sign changes are found in the first column of the Routh array.
Therefore, two roots are in the right-half plane and the rest in the left-
half plane.
(c) s3-row of the Routh array has zero pivot element, but the entire row is
not all zeros. We replace the pivot element by e and then proceed with
the construction of the Routh array. As e ® 0, two sign changes are
found in the first column of the Routh array. Therefore, two roots are
in right-half plane and the rest in the left-half plane.
(d) s1-row of the Routh array is an all-zero row. Auxiliary polynomial
formed using the elements of s2-row is given by
A(s) = s2 + 1
We replace the elements of s1-row with the coefficients of

dA( s )
= 2s + 0
ds
and proceed with the construction of the Routh array. There are no
sign changes in the resulting Routh array; the characteristic
polynomial does not have any root in the right-half plane. The roots of
the 2nd-order auxiliary polynomial are therefore purely imaginary.
The given characteristic equation has two roots on the imaginary axis
and the rest in the left-half plane.
(e) Since all the coefficients of the given characteristic polynomial are
not of the same sign, the system is unstable. The Routh array
formation is required only if the number of roots in the right-half plane
are to be determined.
Only one sign change (the s0-row has – ve pivot element) is found in
the Routh array. Therefore one root is in the right-half plane and the
rest in the left-half plane.
(f) s3-row of the Routh array is an all-zero row. The auxillary polynomial
is
A(s) = 9s4 + 0s2 + 36
3
We replace elements of s -row with the coefficients of

dA( s )
= 36s3 + 0s
ds
The resulting Routh array has s2-row with zero pivot element but the
entire row is not all zeros. We replace the pivot element with e and
proceed with the construction of the Routh array. Two sign changes
are found in the first column; the characteristic polynomial D(s) has

http://ebook29.blogspot.com/
http://ebook29.blogspot.com/

38 CONTROL SYSTEMS: PRINCIPLES AND DESIGN

two roots in the right-half plane. Three possibilities exist: (i) the 4th-
order auxiliary polynomial has all the four purely imaginary roots and
the two right-half plane roots are contributed by the factor D(s)/A(s),
(ii) the 4th-order auxiliary polynomial has complex roots with
quadrantal symmetry (two roots in the right-half plane) and the factor
D(s)/A(s) has all the roots is the left-half plane, and (iii) the 4th-order
auxiliary polynomial has two real-axis roots and two imaginary-axis
roots with quadrantal symmetry and the factor D(s)/A(s) has one root
in the right-half plane. Examining A(s) we find that auxiliary-
polynomial roots are s = – 1 ± j1, 1 ± j1.
The given system, therefore, has two roots in the right-half plane and
the rest in the left-hand plane.
5.2 (a) s1-row of the Routh array is an all-zero row. The auxiliary polynomial
is
A(s) = s2 + 9

D(s)/A(s) = (s4 + 2s3 + 11s2 + 18s + 18)/A(s) = s2 + 2s + 2
Therefore

D(s) = (s + 2) (s4 + 24s2 – 25)

(c) s3-row of the Routh array is an all-zero row. The auxiliary polynomial

A(s) = s4 + 3s2 + 2
D(s)/A(s) = (s6 + 3s5 + 5s4 + 9s3 + 8s2 + 6s + 4)/A(s)

D(s) = (s2 + 3s + 2) (s4 + 3s2 + 2)

s$ -row in the Routh array is an all-zero row. The auxiliary polynomial is
A( s$ ) = s$ 2 + 1 = ( s$ + j1) ( s$ – j1)

We replace the elements of s$ -row with the coefficients of

dA( s$ )
= 2 s$ + 0
ds$
and proceed with the construction of the Routh array. There are no sign
changes in the resulting Routh array. The s-polynomial does not have roots
to the right of the line at s = –1, and there are two roots at s = – 1 ± j1. The
largest time-constant is therefore 1 sec.

From the Routh array, we find that for K > 0.528, all the s-plane roots lie to
the left of the line at s = –1.

For K = 666.25,

For K = 23.3,

For K = 35.7,

(b) The closed-loop poles have real part = – zwn = – 50. The zero is
present at s = – Kc/KD = – 111.11. The zero will result in pronounced
early peak. z is not an accurate estimate of Mp.
6.8 (a) Kv = KI = 10
(b) With KI = 10, the characteristic equation becomes
D(s) = s3 + 10s2 + 100(1 + Kc)s + 1000 = 0
With s = s$ – 1,

D( s$ ) = s$ 3 + 7 s$ 2 + [100(1 + Kc) – 17] s$ + 1009


– 100 (1 + Kc) = 0
In Routh array formation, Kc = 0.41 results in auxiliary equation with
purely imaginary roots. Therefore Kc = 0.41 results in dominant
s-plane poles with real part = – 1.
(c) Routh array formation for D( s$ ) gives the following auxiliary equation.
A( s$ ) = 7 s$ 2 + 868 = 0; s$ = ± j11.14
The complex-conjugate s-plane roots are – 1 ± j11.14.
wd = wn 1 - z 2 = 11.14; zwn = 1
These equations give z = 0.09.
(d) D( s$ ) = ( s$ + 7) ( s$ + j11.14) ( s$ – j11.14) = 0
The third s-plane closed-loop pole is at s = – 8. The dominance
condition in terms of third closed-loop pole is reasonably satisfied.
The zero is at s = – KI/Kc = – 24.39. The zero will not give pronounced
early peak. Therefore z approximately represents Mp.

(b) The zero is at s = – 1/0.216 = – 4.63. Real part of the closed-loop pole

The z = 0.5 loci passes through the origin and makes an angle of q =

this line satisfies the angle criterion. By magnitude criterion, the value of K
at this point is found to be 1.04. Using this value of K, the third pole is
found at

At the intersection of the z = 0.707 line with the root locus, the value of
K, by magnitude criterion is 130. The remaining pair of complex roots for
K = 130 can be approximately located graphically. It turns out that real part
of complex pair away from jw-axis is approximately four times as large as
that of the pair near jw-axis. Therefore, the transient response term due to
the pair away from the jw-axis will decay much more rapidly than the
transient response term due to the pair near jw-axis.

The least value of K to give an oscillatory response is the value of K at


the multiple roots (K = 1.128).
The greatest value of K that can be used before continuous oscillations
occur is the value of K at the point of intersection with the jw-axis. From
the Routh array formulation it is found that the greatest value of K is 30 and
at this gain continuous oscillations of frequency 5 rad/sec occur.
7.7 The proof given in Example 7.1.
7.8 The proof follows from Example 7.1.
Draw a line from the origin tangential to the circular part of the locus. This
line corresponds to damping ratio for maximum oscillatory response. The
tangential line corresponds to z = 0.82 and the value of K at the point of
tangency is 2.1.

There exists a circular root locus with centre at s = ½, w = 0 and the radius

branches form a circle.
The z = 0.707 line intersects the root locus at two points; the values of K at
these points are 1 and 5. The point that corresponds to K = 5 results in lower
value of ts; therefore we choose K = 5(sd = – 3 + j3).

sufficient number of points that satisfy the angle criterion, it can be found
that the root locus is a circle with centre at – 1.5 that passes through the

Locate a root locus point on the real axis that gives K ¢ = 5000 (i.e., K

The process gives z = 0.4.
7.15 Characteristic equation is given by

The gain K corresponding to this point is 3.427. Hence the desired value of
velocity feedback gain Kt is 0.3427.
7.17 Characteristic equation of the system is

The following two points on z = 0.4 line satisfy the angle criterion:
s1 = – 1.05 + j2.41, s2 = – 2.16 + j4.97
The value of K at s1 is 0.449, and at s2 is 1.4130.
The third pole corresponding to K = 0.449 is found at s = – 2.9, and for
K = 1.413 at – 0.68.
From the root locus plot, one may infer that the closed-loop pole at s =
– 0.68 is close to system zero at the origin. This is not the case. In fact the
closed-loop system does not have a zero at the origin:

Y (s) 20
=
R( s ) s( s + 1)( s + 4 ) + 20(1 + Kt s )
In the root locus plot, the zero at the origin was introduced because of the
process of modifying the characteristic equation so that the adjustable
variable K = 20Kt appears as a multiplying factor.
Kt = 0.449 satisfies the dominance condition to a reasonable extent.
For Kt = 1.413, complex-conjugate poles are not dominant.

The zero of the compensator is placed at s = – z = – 4, directly below
the desired root location. For the angle criterion to be satisfied at the desired

The Kv of the compensated system is less than the desired value of 20.

gives Kv boost of the factor of 10. The angle contribution of this
compensator at – 0.33 + j0.58 is about seven degrees. Since the angle
contribution is not small, there will be a small change in the new root locus
near the desired dominant closed-loop poles. If the damping of the new
dominant poles is kept at z = 0.5, then the dominant poles from the new root
locus are found at – 0.28 ± j 0.51. The undamped natural frequency reduces
to 0.56. This implies that the transient response of the compensated system
is slower than the original.
The gain at – 0.28 + j0.51 from the new root locus plot is 0.98.

7.31 Kv = 20 demands K = 2000. However, using Routh criterion, we find that

From the uncompensated root locus we find that corresponding to

Therefore necessary ratio of zero to pole of the compensator is

We will choose z = 0.1 and p = 0.1/9. For this choice, we find that the angle

The locus of the roots as K varies (set KKt = 0) is determined from the
following equation:

K

s( s + 2 )
For K = 20, the roots are – 1 ± j4.36.

Note that complex root branches follow a circular path.
At the intersection of the root locus and z = 0.707 line, we obtain KKt =

The angle of departure at s = l1, is – 80º.


Near s = l1, the locus may be approximated by a line drawn from
– 2.36 + j2.48 at an angle of – 80º. For a change of Dl1 = 0.2 Ð – 80º
along the departure line, Da is determined by magnitude criterion:
Da = 0.48
Therefore the sensitivity at l1 is

Dl 1 0.2 Ð - 80 º
Sal +1 = = = 3.34 Ð – 80º
Da / a 0 0. 48 / 8

(ii) Sensitivity of the root s = l1 to a change in zero at s = – 3 is determined


as follows.
b = b0 + Db = 3 + Db
The characteristic equation is
s(s + 2) (s + 8) + 20.7 (s + 3 + Db) = 0
or

20.7 Db

( s - l 1 )( s - l 2 )( s - l 3 )

The angle of departure of l1 is 50º.


For a change of Dl1 = 0.2 Ð + 50º, we obtain Db = 0.21.
Therefore

Dl 1 0.2 Ð + 50 º
Sbl1 = = = 2.84 Ð + 50º
Db / b 0 0.21 / 3

The sensitivity of the system to the pole can be considered to be less


than the sensitivity to the zero because of the direction of departure
from the pole at s = l1.

From the root locus plot we find that the direction of departure from

The intersections of the polar plot with the axes of G(s)H(s)-plane can
easily be ascertained by identifying the real and imaginary parts of
G(jw)H(jw). When we set Im [G(jw)H(jw)] to zero, we get w = 4.123
and
G( jw ) H ( jw ) w =4 .123 = – 1.428
Similarly, setting Re [G(jw)H(jw)] to zero, we get intersection with
the imaginary axis.
Based on this information, a rough sketch of the Nyquist plot can
easily be made. From the Nyquist plot, we find that N = 2. Since P = 0,
we have Z = N + P = 2, i.e., two closed-loop poles in right half s-plane.

– 60 dB/decade at wc3 = 20.
Asymptotic crossing of the 0 dB-axis is at wg = 16.
(b) The system is type-1; so the low-frequency asymptote has a slope of

(c) The system is type-2; the low-frequency asymptote is drawn with a
slope of – 40 dB/decade, and is located such that its extension would
intersect the 0 dB-axis at w = K = 500 = 22.36. The asymptote
slope changes to – 60 dB/decade at the first corner frequency wc1 = 1;
then to – 40 dB/decade at wc2 = 5, to – 20 dB/decade at wc3 = 10 and to
– 40 dB/decade at wc4 = 50. The asymptotic gain crossover is at

0 dB-axis at w = K = 50. The asymptote slope changes to


–40 dB/decade at wc1 = 10; then to –20 dB/decade at wc2 = 20; to
– 40 dB/decade at wc3 = 50; and to – 80 dB/decade at wc4 = 200 (note
that the corner frequency for the complex poles is wc4 = wn = 200).
The asymptotic gain crossover is at wg = 26.
8.15 (a) The low-frequency asymptote has a slope of – 20 dB/decade and
passes through the point (w = 1, dB = 20). The asymptote slope
changes to – 40 dB/decade at wc = 10.
Compensate the asymptotic plot by – 3 dB at w = 10, by – 1dB at w =
5 and by – 1 dB at w = 20. The compensated magnitude plot crosses
the 0 dB line at wg = 7.86.
The phase is computed from
Ð G(jw) = – 90º – tan–1 0.1w
The phase shift at wg = 7.86 is –128.2º, and the resulting phase margin
is – 128.2º – (– 180º) = 51.8º. Because the phase curve never reaches
– 180º line, the gain margin is infinity.
(b) Low-frequency asymptote has a slope of – 20 dB/decade and passes
through the point (w = 1, dB = 20)
The asymptote slope changes to – 60 dB/decade at the corner
frequency wc = 10. Compensate the asymptotic plot by – 6 dB at w =
10, by – 2 dB at w = 5 and – 2 dB at w = 20. The compensated
magnitude plot crosses the 0 dB line at wg = 6.8. The phase is
computed from
Ð G(jw) = – 90º – 2 tan–1 0.1w
The phase shift at wg = 6.8 is – 158.6º. Therefore, the phase margin is
180º – 158.6º = 21.4º. At a frequency of wf = 10, the phase shift is
– 180º; the gain margin is 6 dB.
(c) The low-frequency asymptote has a slope of –20 dB/decade and passes
through the point (w = 0.1, dB = 20log 200 = 46). The slope changes to
– 40 dB/decade at the first corner frequency wc1 = 2, and back to – 20
dB/decade at the second corner frequency wc2 = 5. Compensate the
asymptotic plot by – 3 dB at w = 2, by – 1 dB at w = 1, by – 1 dB at w
= 4, by + 3 dB at w = 5, by + 1 dB at w = 2.5 and by + 1 dB at w = 10.
The compensated magnitude plot crosses the 0 dB line at wg = 9. The
phase shift at this frequency is – 106.6º. Therefore the phase margin is
73.4º.
Phase never reaches – 180º line; the gain margin is infinity.

The time-delay factor e–0.1s will not change the magnitude plot; it will
change only the phase characteristics. For the system with dead-time,
wg = 9 rad/sec; FM = 22º; wf = 13.65 rad/sec; GM = 4.2 dB

The low-frequency asymptote coincides with 0 dB line; its slope
changes to – 20 dB/decade at wc1 = 2, to – 40 dB/decade at wc2 = 4,
and to – 60 dB/decade at wc3 = 5. Compensated magnitude plot can
easily be obtained by applying corrections.
The phase plot crosses the – 180º line at wf = 7 rad/sec, and the gain
margin is 20 dB. Since the gain never reaches 0 dB (wg = 0), the phase
margin is infinity.
(f) From the Bode plots of G(jw) we find that gain crossover frequency
wg = 3.16 rad/sec, and the phase margin is –33º. The phase plot is
asymptotic to the –180º line in the low-frequency range; it never
reaches – 180º
Therefore the GM = – ¥

From the Bode plot of the system sketched for K = 10, we find that FM =
21º, GM = 8 dB.
Increasing the gain from K = 10 to K = 100 shifts the 0 dB axis down by 20
dB. The phase and gain margins for the system with K = 100 are
FM = – 30º, GM = – 12 dB
Thus the system is stable for K = 10 but unstable for K = 100.

Since G(s) has all poles in left half s-plane, the open-loop system is
stable. Hence the closed-loop system will be stable if the frequency
response has a gain less than unity when the phase is 180º.
When K = 40, the gain margin is 20 dB (refer Problem 8.15e).
Therefore, an increase in gain of +20 dB (i.e., by a factor of 10) is
possible before the system becomes unstable. Hence K < 400 for
stability.

SOLUTION MANUAL 85

(b) From the Bode plot of G(jw) with K = 1, we find that the phase
crossover frequency wf = 15.88 rad/sec and gain margin = 34.82 dB.
This means that the gain can be increased by 34.82 dB (i.e., by a factor
of 55) before the system becomes unstable. Hence K < 55 for stability.
(c) From the Bode plot of G(jw) with K = 1, we find that wf = 0.66 rad/sec
and GM = 4.5 dB. Thus the critical value of K for stability is 1.67, i.e.,
K < 1.67 for the system stability.
8.18 From the Bode plot of G(jw), it can easily be determined that (a) when tD =
0, the GM = 12 dB, and FM = 33º; and (b) when tD = 0.04 sec, the GM =
2.5 dB and FM = 18º. The relative stability of the system reduces due to the
presence of dead-time.
(c) The value of tD for the system to be on verge of instability is obtained
by setting the phase margin equal to zero, i.e.,

w gt D ´ 180º
G1 ( jw ) w =w – = – 180º
g p
where G1(jw) is the system without dead-time, and wg is the gain
crossover frequency. From the Bode plot of G1(jw), we get wg = 7.4
rad/sec and Ð G1(jwg) = – 147º.
Therefore,
7.4t D ´ 180 º

or tD = 0.078 sec
8.19 Since the systems have minimum-phase characteristics, zeros (if any) are
in left half s-plane.
(a) The low-frequency asymptote has a slope of – 20 dB/decade and its
extension intersects the 0 dB-axis at w = 4. The system is therefore
type-1; 4/s is a factor of the transfer function.
The asymptote slope changes from – 20 dB/decade to 0 dB/decade at

The phase curve can now be constructed.
From the phase curve and the asymptotic magnitude curve, we obtain
FM = 50º ; GM = 24 dB
Phase margin of 50º gives z = 0.48 which corresponds to Mp » 18%.
9.10 (a) From the Bode plot, we get FM = 12º
(b) For a phase margin of 50º, we require that G(jw) H(jw) = 1 Ð – 130º
for some value of w. From the phase curve of G(jw)H(jw), we find that
Ð G(jw)H(jw) ~ - –130º at w = 0.5. The magnitude of G(jw)H(jw) at
this frequency is approximately 3.5. The gain must be reduced by a
factor of 3.5 to achieve a phase margin of 50º.

(b) For the desired gain margin of 20 dB, we must decrease the gain by
(20 – 3.88) = 16.12 dB. It means that magnitude curve must be lowered
by 16.12 dB, i.e., the gain must be changed by a factor of b, given by
20 log b = – 16.12. This gives b = 0.156.
(c) To obtain a phase margin of 60º, we must first determine the frequency
at which the phase angle of G(jw) is – 120º, and then adjust the gain so
that |G(jw)| at this frequency is 0 dB. From the Bode plot, we find that
lowering the magnitude plot by 16.65 dB gives the desired phase
margin. It equivalently means that the gain should be changed by a
factor of a where 20 log a = – 16.65. This gives a = 0.147.

From the plot we find that at w = 14.8 rad/sec, Ð G(jw) = – 120.8º. At
w = 14.8, the gain is – 44.18 dB. The magnitude curve has to be raised to 0
dB at w = 14.8 to yield the required phase margin. The gain should be
changed by a factor of a where 20 log a = 44.18. This gives a = 161.808.
Therefore,
K = 3.6 × 161.808 = 582.51

of 10 dB. This is achieved by reducing the gain by 5 dB.
(c) The gain at w = 1.27 is –4.8 dB. Therefore, the gain should be
increased by 4.8 dB to obtain a gain crossover frequency of 1.27

(d) Gain at the frequency which gives Ð G(jw) = – 135º, should be 0 dB.

From the Bode plot we find that this requires reducing the gain by 3.5
dB.
9.15 The requirements on FM and wg are satisfied if we increase the gain to the
limit of zero GM with a phase margin ³ 45º. From the Bode plot we find
that K = 37.67 meets this requirement.
9.16 (a) From the Bode plot we find that 0 dB crossing occurs at a frequency of
0.47 rad/sec with a phase angle of – 145º. Therefore, the phase margin
is 35º. Assuming a second-order approximation, FM = 35º ® z =
0.33, Mp = 33%.
(b) The zero dB crossing occurs with a phase angle of – 118º. Therefore
the phase margin is 62º. FM = 62º ® z = 0.64, MP = 7.3%.
9.17 The 0 dB crossing occurs at w = 0.8, with a phase angle of – 140º when tD
= 0, and – 183º when tD = 1. Therefore phase margin of the system without
dead-time is 40º; and with dead-time added, the phase margin becomes
– 3º. We find that with the dead-time added, the system becomes unstable.
Therefore, the system gain must be reduced in order to provide a reasonable
phase margin.
We find from the Bode plot that in order to provide a phase margin of
30º, the gain would have to be decreased by 5 dB, i.e., by a factor of b
where 20 log b = 5. This gives b = 1.78.
We find that the dead-time necessitates the reduction in loop gain is order
to obtain a stable response. The cost of stability is the resulting increase in
the steady-state error of the system as the loop gain is reduced.
9.18 Make a polar plot of

The polar plot intersects the negative real axis at w = 4.24.
The polar plot is tangential to the M = 1.8 circle (refer Eqn. (9.22)).
Therefore, the resonance peak Mr = 1.8.
The bandwidth of a system is defined as the frequency at which the
magnitude of the closed-loop frequency response is 0.707 of its magnitude
at w = 0. For the system under consideration, closed-loop gain is unity at w
= 0; therefore, bandwidth is given by the frequency at which the M = 0.707
circle intersects the polar plot. This frequency is found to be 3.61 rad/sec.
Therefore wb = 3.61

based on the assumption that zero-frequency closed-loop gain for the

For each value of w, the magnitude and phase of G(jw) are transferred from
the Bode plot to the Nichols chart. The resulting dB vs phase curve is
tangential to M = 6.7 dB contour of the Nichols chart at w = 9 rad/sec.
Therefore Mr = 6.7 dB and wr = 9. The dB vs phase curve intersects the
– 3 dB contour of the Nichols chart at w = 13.6. Therefore bandwidth wb
= 13.6 rad/sec.
The following points are worth noting in the use of Nichols chart.
(i) The frequency parameters (wr or wb) can be easily determined by
transferring the dB and/or phase data from the dB vs phase curve to the
Bode plot.

SOLUTION MANUAL 95

(ii) The open-loop dB vs phase plot may not be tangential to one of the
constant-M contours of the Nichols chart. One must do a little
interpolation. In the present problem, Mr = 6.7 dB has been obtained
by interpolation.
9.21 Plot the given frequency response on a dB scale against phase angle. From
the dB vs phase curve, we obtain,
GM = 7 dB ; FM = 17º
The dB vs phase curve when transferred on Nichols chart gives Mr = 10 dB;
wr = 2.75 rad/sec; wb = 4.2 rad/sec
Note that the –3dB bandwidth definition is applicable to systems having
unity closed-loop gain at w = 0. We have made this assumption for the
system under consideration.
9.22 For parts (a) and (b) of this problem, refer Problem 9.10.
(c) Since the data for –3dB contour of the Nichols chart has been
provided, we don’t require the Nichols chart for bandwidth
determination. On a linear scale graph sheet, dB vs phase cure of the
open-loop frequency response is plotted with data coming from Bode
plot. On the same graph sheet, the – 3dB contour using the given data
is plotted.
The intersection of the two curves occurs at w = 0.911 rad/sec.
Therefore bandwidth wb = 0.911.

wb = 0.911 and z = 0.47 ® wn = 0.7025 ; ts = 11.93 sec.
9.23 The frequency-response data from the Bode plot of G(jw) when transferred
to the Nichols chart, gives the following result.
Mr = 1.4 ; wr = 6.9 rad/sec
From the relations

Mr = ; wr = wn 1 - 2z 2

we obtain
z = 39 ; wn = 8.27 rad/sec

96 CONTROL SYSTEMS: PRINCIPLES AND DESIGN

Note that the given type-0 system has zero-frequency closed-loop gain
= 54/(25 + 54) = 0.6835. The approximation of the transient response of
the system by z = 0.39 and wn = 8.27 has large error since the correlations
(Mr, wr) ® (z, wn) used above, have been derived from systems with unity
zero-frequency closed-loop gain.
9.24 (a) Transfer the frequency-response data from the Bode plot of G(jw) to
the Nichols chart.
Shifting the dB vs phase curve down by 5.4 dB makes this curve
tangent to the M = 20 log 1.4contour. Therefore gain must be changed
by a factor of b, where 20 log b = – 5.4. This gives b = 0.54.
(b) The gain-compensated system intersects the – 3 dB contour of the
Nichols chart at w = 9.2. Therefore bandwidth wb = 9.2 rad/sec.
Note that the – 3dB bandwidth definition given by Eqn. (9.2b) is applicable
to systems having unity closed-loop gain at w = 0. The given system does
not satisfy this requirement. The answer, therefore, is an approximation of
the bandwidth.
9.25 (a) From the Bode plot we find the phase crossover frequency wf = 2.1
and GM = 14 dB. For the gain margin to be 20 dB, the magnitude plot
is to be brought down by 6 dB. The value of K corresponding to this
condition is given by the relation
20 log K = – 6
which gives K = 0.5
(b) From the Bode plot it is observed that FM = 60º will be obtained if
gain crossover frequency wg is 0.4 rad/sec. This is achieved if
magnitude plot is brought down by 7 dB. This condition corresponds
to K = 0.446.
(c) From the dB-phase plot on the Nichols chart, we find that for this plot
to be tangent to M = 1 dB contour, the dB-phase curve must be brought
down by 4 dB. This condition corresponds to K = 0.63. The
corresponding value of wr (read off from Bode plot) is 0.5 rad/sec.
The value of bandwidth (wb) is the frequency at which the dB-phase
plot intersects the – 3dB contour. It is found that wb = 1 rad/sec.
(d) The dB vs phase plot on the Nichols chart when raised by 2.4 dB,
intersects the –3 dB contour at w = 1.5 rad/sec. This condition
corresponds to K = 1.35.
9.26 Plot the given frequency response on a dB scale against phase angle. From
this dB vs phase curve, we obtain
GM = 16.5 dB ; FM = 59º

SOLUTION MANUAL 97

Transfer the dB vs phase curve on the Nichols chart. We find that this curve
when raised by about 5 dB, touches the M = 20 log1.4 contour of the
Nichols chart. Therefore the gain should be increased by a factor of b,
where 20 log b = 5. This gives b = 1.75.
The gain-compensated system has GM = 11.6 dB and FM = 42.5º.
9.27 The dB vs phase plot becomes tangential to 20 log1.4 dB contour on
Nichols chart if the plot is lowered by about 11 dB. This means that the
gain K must be reduced by a factor of a where 20 log (1/a) = –11. This
gives a = 3.5.
Phase margin of the gain-compensated system is 42.5º
Mr = 1.4 ® z = 0.387 ; FM = 42.5º ® z = 0.394
The following comments may be carefully noted.
(i) Zero-frequency closed-loop gain has been assumed to be unity.
(ii) One is usually safe if the lower of the two values of z is utilized for
analysis and design purposes.

1 G - ( jw )

9.28 SGM (jw) = =
1 + G( jw ) 1 + G -1 ( jw )

Magnitude of SGM (jw) can be obtained by plotting G–1(jw) on the Nichols


chart.
The dB vs phase plot of G–1(jw) is tangent to M = 20 log 2.18 dB contour of
Nichols chart. Therefore

| SGM (jw)|max = 2.18


The peak occurs at w = 7 rad/sec.

CHAPTER 10 COMPENSATOR DESIGN USING


BODE PLOTS

10.1 (a) From the Bode plot of G(jw)H(jw), we find that GM = 6 dB and
FM = 17º
(b) Now the gain and phase of the compensator with Kc = 1 are added to
the Bode plot. From the new Bode plot we find that the gain must be
raised by 1.5 dB to have a gain margin of 6 dB.
20 log Kc = 1.5 gives Kc = 1.2
10.2 (a) From the Bode plot of G(jw)H(jw) we find that wg = 4.08 rad/sec; FM
= 3.9º; GM = 1.6 dB
(b) Now the gain and phase of the compensator are added to the Bode plot.
From the new Bode plot, we find that
wg = 5 rad/sec; FM = 37.6º; GM = 18 dB
The increase in phase and gain margins implies that lead compensation
increases margin of stability. The increase in wg implies that lead
compensation increases speed of response.
10.3 (a) Kv = lim sD(s)G(s) = K = 12
s® 0
(b) From the Bode plot and Nichols chart analysis of the system with
K=12, we find that FM = 15º; wb = 5.5 rad/sec; Mr = 12 dB; wr = 3.5

The frequency at which the uncompensated system has a magnitude of

state accuracy requirements. These requirements are also met by the lag
10 (10 s + 1)
compensator D(s) =
100s + 1
In this particularly simple example, specifications could be met by either
compensation. In more realistic situations, there are additional performance
specifications such as bandwidth and there are constraints on loop gain.
Had there been additional specifications and constraints, it would have
influenced the choice of compensator (lead or lag).
105. The settling time and peak overshoot requirements on performance may be
translated to the following equivalent specifications:
z = 0.45 ; wn = 2.22
z is related to the phase margin by the relation

z
FM » = 45º
0.01
wn is related to the bandwidth wb by the relation
1/ 2
wb = wn 1 - 2z 2 + 2 - 4z 2 + 4z 4

For a closed-loop system with z = 0.45, we estimate from this relation


wb = 1.33 wn
Therefore, we require a closed-loop bandwidth wb ~
- 3. The gain K of the
compensator
K (t s + 1)
D(s) =
at s + 1

may be set a value given by K = w 2n . This gives K ~- 5. To provide a


suitable margin for settling time, we select K = 10.
The phase margin of the uncompensated system is 0º because the
double integration results in a constant 180º phase lag. Therefore, we must
add a 45º phase lead at the gain crossover frequency of the compensated
magnitude curve. Evaluating the value of a, we have
1 - sin 45º
a = = 0.172
1 + sin 45º
To provide a margin of safety, we select a = 1/6.

100 CONTROL SYSTEMS: PRINCIPLES AND DESIGN

The frequency at which the uncompensated system has a magnitude of


– 20 log (1/ a ) = – 7.78 dB is 4.95 rad/sec. Selecting this frequency as
the gain crossover frequency of the compensated magnitude curve, we set

The closed-loop system with the compensator

K = 20 realizes this value of Kv.
From the Bode plot of

20
G(jw) =
jw ( j 0.5w + 1)
we find that the phase margin of the uncompensated system is 18º. The
phase lead required at the gain crossover frequency of the compensated
magnitude curve = 45º – 18º + 3º = 30º.
1 - sin 30 º
a = = 0.334

Therefore the compensator

D(s) =
0.0668s + 1
The phase margin of the compensated system is found to be 43.7º. If we
desire to have exactly a 45º phase margin, we should repeat the steps with a
decreased value of a.
From the Nichols chart analysis of the compensated and uncompensated
systems, we find that the lead compensator has increased the bandwidth
from 9.5 rad/sec to 12 rad/sec.

SOLUTION MANUAL 101

10.7 From the Bode plot of

20
G(jw) =
jw ( j 0.5w + 1)
we find that the phase margin of the uncompensated system is 18º. To
realize a phase margin of 45º, the gain crossover frequency should be
moved to w g¢ where the phase angle of the uncompensated system is:
– 180º + 45º + 5º = – 130º.
From the Bode plot of uncompensated system, we find that w g¢ = 1.5. The
attenuation necessary to cause w g¢ to be the new gain crossover frequency
is 20 dB. The b parameter of the lag compensator can now be calculated.
20 log b = 20
This gives b = 10. Placing the upper corner frequency of the compensator a
decade below w g¢ , we have 1/t = 0.15.

Therefore, the lag compensator


6.66 s + 1
D(s) =
66.6 s + 1
As a final check, we numerically evaluate the phase margin and the
bandwidth of the compensated system. It is found that that FM = 45º and
wb = 2.5 rad/sec.
10.8 From the steady-state requirement, we set K = 100. From the Bode plot of

100
G(jw) =
jw ( j 0.1w )( j 0.2w + 1)
we find that the phase margin is – 40º, which means that the system is
unstable. The rapid decrease of phase of G(jw) at the gain crossover
frequency wg = 17 rad/sec, implies that single-stage lead compensation may
be ineffective for this system. (The reader should, in fact, try a single-stage
lead compensator). For the present system, in which the desired Kv is 100,
a phase lead of more than 85º is required. For phase leads greater than 60º,
it is advisable to use two or more cascaded stages of lead compensation
(refer Fig. 10.15). The design approach may be that of achieving a portion
of the desired phase margin improvement by each compensator stage.
We first add a single-stage lead compensator that will provide a phase
lead of about 42.5º, i.e., the compensator will improve the phase margin to
about 2.5º.

102 CONTROL SYSTEMS: PRINCIPLES AND DESIGN

Since the phase curve of the Bode plot of the uncompensated system at the
gain crossover frequency has a large negative slope, the value of a = 0.19
given by
1 - sin 42.5º
a =
1 + sin 42.5º
will not yield a phase margin of 2.5º. In fact, when we set a = 0.08 and
t = 0.1, the single-stage compensator improves the phase margin to 3º.
0.1s + 1
Therefore D1(s) =
0.008s + 1
Notice that the single-stage lead compensator not only improves the phase
margin, but also reduces the slope of the phase curve of the gain crossover
frequency. By adding another stage of the compensator with D2(s) = D1(s),
we obtain

100( 0.1s + 1)
D2(s)D1(s)G(s) =
s( 0.2 s + 1)( 0.008s + 1) 2
Note that pole and zero at s = – 10 cancel each other.
The final compensated system has a phase margin of 45º.

SOLUTION MANUAL 103

The phase margin of the compensated system is found to be 47.5º. By


Nichols chart analysis, it is found that the lead compensator reduces the
resonance peak from 2 to 1.25 and increases the bandwidth from 74 to 98
rad/sec.
10.10 The phase margin of the uncompensated system
2500 K
G(s) = ;K=1
s ( s + 25)
read at the gain crossover frequency wg = 47 rad/sec is 28º. To realize a
phase margin of 45º, the gain crossover frequency should be moved to w ¢g
where the phase angle of the uncompensated system is:
– 180º + 45º = – 135º.
From the Bode plot of the uncompensated system we find that w g¢ = 25.
Since the lag compensator contributes a small negative phase when the
upper corner frequency of the compensator is placed at 1/10 of the value of
w g¢ , it is a safe measure to choose w g¢ at somewhat less than 25 rad/sec,
say, 20 rad/sec.
The attenuation necessary to cause w ¢g = 20 to be the new gain crossover
frequency is 14 dB.
The b parameter of the lag compensator can now be calculated.
20 log b = 14. This gives b = 5
Placing the upper corner frequency of the compensator a decade below w g¢ ,
we have 1/t = 2. Therefore the lag compensator
0.5s + 1
D(s) =
2.5s + 1
From the Bode plot–Nichols chart analysis we find that the compensated
system has
FM = 51º; Mr = 1.2 and wb = 27.5 rad/sec.
10.11 Kv = lim sG(s) = 5
s®0

From the Bode plot we find that the uncompensated system has a phase
margin of – 20º; the system is therefore unstable.
We attempt a lag compensator. This choice is based on the observation
made from Bode plot of uncompensated system that there is a rapid
decrease in phase of G(jw) near wg. Lead compensator will not be effective
for this system.

104 CONTROL SYSTEMS: PRINCIPLES AND DESIGN

To realize a phase margin of 40º, the gain crossover frequency should be


moved to w g¢ where the phase angle of the uncompensated system is:

– 180º + 40º + 12º = – 128º


From the Bode plot of the uncompensated system, it is found that w g¢ = 0.5
rad/sec. The attenuation necessary to cause w g¢ to be the new gain crossover
frequency is 20 dB. The b parameter of the lag compensator can now be
calculated.
20 log b = 20. This gives b = 10
Since we have taken a large safety margin of 12°, we can place the upper
corner frequency of the compensator at 0.1 rad/sec, i.e., 1/t = 0.1. Thus the
transfer function of the lag compensator becomes
10 s + 1
D(s) =
100 s + 1
From the Bode plot of compensated system we find that the phase margin is
about 40° and the gain margin is about 11 dB.
10.12 It easily follows that K = 30 satisfies the specification on Kv. From the
Bode plot of

30
G(jw) =
jw ( j 0.1w + 1)( j 0.2w + 1)
we find that gain crossover frequency is 11 rad/sec and phase margin is
– 24º. Nichols chart analysis gives wb = 14 rad/sec.
If lead compensation is employed, the system bandwidth will increase still
further, resulting in an undesirable system which will be sensitive to noise.
If lag compensation is attempted, the bandwidth will decrease sufficiently
so as to fall short of the specified value of 12 rad/sec, resulting in a sluggish
system. These facts can be verified by designing lead and lag compensa-
tors. We thus find that there is need to go in for lag-lead compensation.
Since the full lag compensator will reduce the system bandwidth
excessively, the lag section of the lag-lead compensator must be designed
so as to provide partial compensation only. The lag section, therefore,
should move the gain crossover frequency to a value higher than the gain
crossover frequency of the fully lag-compensated system. We make a
choice of new gain crossover frequency as w g¢ = 3.5 rad/sec. The
attenuation necessary to cause w g¢ to be the new gain crossover frequency
is 18.5 dB. This gives the b parameter of the lag section as
20 log b = 18.5; b = 8.32, say, 10

transfer function of the lag section as
t 1s + 1 s +1
D1(s) = =
bt 1s + 1 10 s + 1
It is found that the lag-section compensated system has a phase margin of
24º.
We now proceed to design the lead section. The implementation of the lag-
lead compensator is simpler if a and b parameters of the lead and lag
compensators, respectively, are related as a = 1/b. Let us first make this
choice. If our attempt fails, we will relax this constraint on a.
The frequency at which the lag-section compensated system has a
magnitude of – 20 log (1/ a ) = – 10 dB is 7.5 rad/sec. Selecting this
frequency as gain crossover frequency of the lag-lead compensated
magnitude curve, we set

In order to meet the specification of Kv = 40, K must be set at 1440. From


the Bode plot of

G(jw) =

we find that the gain crossover frequency is 29.7 rad/sec and phase margin

It can easily be verified by Nichols chart analysis that the bandwidth of the
compensated system exceeds the requirement. We assume the peak time
specification is met. This conclusion about the peak time is based on a
second-order approximation that should be checked via simulation.
10.14 K = 2000 meets the requirement on Kv. We estimate a phase margin of 65º
to meet the requirement on z.
(a) From the Bode plot we find that the uncompensated system with K =
2000 has a phase margin of zero degrees. From the Bode plot we
observe that there is a rapid decrease of phase at the gain crossover
frequency. Since the requirement on phase lead is quite large, it is not
advisable to compensate this system by a single-stage lead
compensator (refer Fig. 10.15).
(b) Allowing 10º for the lag compensator, we locate the frequency at
which the phase angle of the uncompensated system is:
– 180º + 65º + 10º = – 105º. This frequency is equal to 1.5 rad/sec. The
gain crossover frequency w g¢ should be moved to this value. The
necessary attenuation is 23 dB. The b parameter of the lag com-
pensator can now be calculated.
20 log b = 23. This gives b = 14.2

system we find that, w g¢ = 6. The attenuation necessary to cause w g¢ to be
the new gain crossover frequency is 9 dB.
20 log b = 9. This gives b ~

Placing the upper corner frequency of the lag compensator two octaves
below w g¢ , we have 1/t = 1.5.
The lag compensator

Nichols chart analysis of the compensated system gives wb = 11 rad/sec.
Using second-order approximation

wb = wn 1 - 2z 2 + 2 - 4z 2 + 4z 4

we get wn = 10
Therefore ts = 4/zwn = 1 sec
Note that the zero-frequency closed-loop gain of the system is nonunity.
Therefore, the use of – 3 dB bandwidth definition, and the second-order
system correlation between wb and z & wn may result in considerable error.
Final design must be checked by simulation.

11.12 The set-point control, proportional action and derivative action are all
included in the op amp circuit of Fig. 11.43. Only the integral action is to
be added. Connect the integral-action unit of Fig. 11.41 in cascade with
the proportional action unit of Fig. 11.43; the output e4 of the proportional-
action unit of Fig. 11.43 becomes input to the integral-action unit (output
e3).
The resulting op amp circuit is governed by the following relation (refer

11.15 From the process reaction curve (refer Section 11.9) we obtain
tD = 6 sec, t = 12 sec, K = 1
From tuning rules given in Table 11.2;
Kc = 1.8, TI = 19.98 sec
11.16 The model obtained from process reaction curve (refer Section 11.9):
K = 1 ; t = 1.875 ; tD = 1.375
From tuning rules given in Table 11.2:
(a) Kc = 1.36
(b) Kc = 1.23 ; TI = 4.58 min
11.17 tND = 0.2 for process A, 0.5 for process B, and 0.5 for Process C. Process
A is more controllable than processes B and C, which are equally
controllable.
11.18 (a) From the tuning rules given in Table 11.2:
K c¢ = 3 ; TI¢ = 4 min ; TD¢ = 1 min

1 1
(b) tCD = tD + T = 2 min + × 8 sec = 2.067 min.
2 2
Replacing tD by tCD in the tuning formulas, we obtain
K c¢ = 2.9 ; TI¢ = 4.13 min ; TD¢ = 1.03 min

1
11.19 Replace tD in tuning formulas of Table 11.2 by tCD = tD + T. Increase
2
in sampling time demands reduced Kc and increased TI and TD.
11.20 From tuning rules given in Table 11.1:
Kc = 2.25 ; TI = 28.33 sec
Correction to account for sampling is not required since the test has
directly been conducted on the digital loop.
