Study Notes

Stability Analysis in Control Systems

  • Stability is a crucial characteristic of a control system's transient performance
  • A stable system's output is predictable, finite, and stable for a given input
  • System stability is determined by analyzing the location of its poles in the complex plane.

Concepts of Stability

  • BIBO Stability: A system is BIBO stable if it produces a bounded output for any bounded input
  • Asymptotic Stability: In the absence of input, the output of the system goes to zero, regardless of initial conditions.
  • Stable System: A stable system produces a bounded output for a bounded input. Four cases of system stability are possible
  • Absolute Stable: Stable for all parameter values
  • Marginally Stable: Output has sustained oscillations at a constant magnitude.
  • Unstable: Output is unbounded for bounded input
  • Conditionally Stable: Stable only within a limited range of parameter variations

Effect of Pole Location on Stability

  • Real and Negative Poles: Exponentially decaying time response; stable
  • Complex Conjugate Poles with Negative Real Parts: Damped oscillations; stable
  • Real and Positive Poles: Exponentially increasing response; unstable
  • Complex Conjugate Poles with Positive Real Parts: Growing oscillations; unstable

Routh-Hurwitz Criterion

  • An algebraic method for determining the stability of a linear time-invariant (LTI) system
  • Examines the coefficients of the characteristic equation to determine the number of roots with positive real parts (unstable).
  • By examining the signs in the first column of the Routh array, the stability of the system is determined.
  • The number of sign changes in the first column of the Routh array equals the number of roots with positive real parts in the characteristic equation, indicating the number of unstable poles.

Root Locus Technique

  • A graphical method used to analyze the stability and transient response of a closed-loop control system as controller gain (K) changes
  • Plots the location of closed-loop poles in the complex s-plane as K varies from zero to infinity.
  • Poles and zeros of the open-loop system determine the root locus plot's characteristics.
  • Useful for determining stability boundaries and designing suitable system parameters
  • Utilizes angle and magnitude conditions to plot the root locus.

Terms in Root Locus

  • Characteristic Equation: The equation relating the stability of a closed loop system to its controller gain (K)
  • Breakaway Points: Points where multiple roots of the characteristic equation occur. Breakaway points on the real axis are where the root locus branches depart.
  • Break-In Points: Points where multiple roots of the characteristic equation occur. Points where root locus branches intersect the real axis and extend back into the complex plane.
  • Centroid (σa): The center of gravity of the poles and zeros of the open-loop system
  • Asymptotes: Lines originating from the centroid (σa), dictating how the root locus branches approach infinity. The angles of asymptotes are calculated from the number of poles and zeros
  • Intersection points with the Imaginary Axis: The auxiliary equation and Routh-Hurwitz stability criterion are used
  • Gain Margin: The amount by which the gain can be increased before the system becomes unstable
  • Phase Margin: The amount of additional phase shift required before the system becomes unstable
