Stability and the characteristics of transient response of closed-loop systems Locations of the closed-loop poles Introduction Problems to solve characteristic equation : 1. Difficult for a system of third or higher order. 2. Tedious for varying parameters. 2
Y(s) R(s) K G(s) - H(s) In many systems, simple gain adjustment may move the closed-loop poles to desired locations. Then the design problem may become the selection of an appropriate gain value. It is important to know how the closed-loop poles move in the s plane as the loop gain K is varied. The open loop gain K is an important parameter that can affect the performance of a system Varying the loop gain K 3
Root Locus: the locus of roots of the characteristic equation of the closed-loop system as a specific parameter (usually, gain K) is varied form 0 to ∞. The advantages of RL approach: 1. Avoiding tedious and complex roots-solving calculation 2. Clearly showing the contributions of each loop poles or zeros to the location of the closed-loop poles. 3. Indicating the manner in which the loop poles and zeros should be modified so that the response meets system performance specifications. 4
R(s) Y(s) - Consider a second-order system shown as follows: Closed-loop TF: Start from an example Characteristic equation (CE): Roots of CE: The roots of CE change as the value of k changes. When k changes from 0 to ∞, how will the locus of the roots of CE move? 5
k=0 0 -1/2 -1 As the value of k increases, the two negative real roots move closer to each other. A pair of complex-conjugate roots leave the negative real-axis and move upwards and downwards following the line s=-1/2. On the s plane, using arrows to denote the direction of characteristic roots move when k increases, by numerical value to denote the gain at the poles. 6
By Root loci, we can analyze the system behaviors (1)Stability: when Root loci are on the left half plane, then the system is definitely stable for all k>0. (2)Steady-state performance: there ’s an open-loop pole at s=0, so the system is a type I system. The steady-state error is 0 under step input signal R/Kv under ramp signal v0t ∞ under parabolic signal. 7
(3)Transient performance: there’s a close relationship between root loci and system behavior on the real-axis: k<0.25underdamped; k=0.25critically damped k>0.25 underdamped. However, it’s difficult to draw root loci directly by closed-loop characteristic roots-solving method. The idea of root loci : by loop transfer function, draw closed-loop root loci directly.
R(S) Y(s) G(s) - H(s) Relationship between zeros and poles of G(s)H(s) and closed-loop ones Forward path TF: Closed-loop TF: Feedback path TF: 9
Suppose that G(s)H(s) has m zeros (Zi) and n poles(Pi), the above equation can be re-written as To draw Closed-loop root locus is to solve the CE That is RL equation K* varies from 0 to ∞ 10
RL equation: Magnitude equation (ME) Since G(s)H(s) is function of a complex variable s, the root locus equation can be described by the following two equations: Angle equation (AE) Magnitude equation is related not only to zeros and poles of G(s)H(s), but also to RL gain ; Angel equation is only related to zero and poles of G(s)H(s). Use AE to draw root loci and use ME to determine the value of K on root loci. 11
Example 1 Poles of G(s)H(s)(×) Zeros of G(s)H(s)(〇) For a point s1on the root loci, use AE Use ME Angel is in the direction of anti-clockwise 12
Example 2 Unity-feedback transfer function: One pole of G(s)H(s): No zero. Test a points1 on the negative real-axis All the points on the negative real-axis are on RL. Test a point outside the negative real-axis s2=-1-j All the points outside the negative real-axis are not on RL. 13
Probe by each point: 1. Find all the points that satisfy the Angle Equation on the s-plane, and then link all these points into a smooth curve, thus we have the system root locus when k* changes from 0 to ∞; 2. As for the given k, find the points that satisfy the Magnitude Equation on the root locus, then these points are required closed-loop poles. However, it’s unrealistic to apply such “probe by each point” method. W.R. Evans (1948) proposed a set of root loci drawing rules which simplify the our drawing work.

1 and points Root loci originate on the poles of G(s)H(s) (for K=0) and terminates on the zeros of G(s)H(s) (as K=∞). RL Equation: Magnitude Equation: Root loci start from poles of G(s)H(s) Root loci end at zeros of G(s)H(s). 17
2 Number of branches on the RL nth-order system, RL have n starting points and RL have n branches RL Equation: The order of the characteristic equation is n as K varies from 0 to ∞,n roots changen root loci. For a real physical system, the number of poles of G(s)H(s) are more than zeros,i.e. n > m. n root loci end at open-loop zeros(finite zeros); m root loci end at open-loop zeros(finite zeros); (n-m)root loci end at (n-m) infinite zeros. 18
3 Symmetry of the RL The RL are symmetrical with respect to the real axis of the s-plane. The roots of characteristic equation are real or complex-conjugate. Therefore, we only need to draw the RL on the up half s-plane and on the real-axis, the rest can be obtained by plotting its mirror image. 19
