Q1
(a)
The characteristic equation of a general nth order system is given by
q(s) = s" + a1s"-1 + a2s"-2 + .. + an-2s² + an-1s + an
Using the Routh-Hurwitz criterion, derive conditions for stability of a general
i) first-order system,
ii) second-order system
iii) third-order system
in terms of the coefficients a1, a2, ... an.
(b)
The transfer function of a system is given by
G(s) =
s2 + 10s + 30
Calculate the response of this system to a unit impulse input.
(c)
Consider an open loop transfer function of the form K G(s). Briefly describe
three different methods which can be used to determine the values of K for
which the closed loop system remains stable.
(d)
Consider the open-loop transfer function G(s) = What is meant by the
s+1
frequency response of G(s)? Sketch a Nyquist plot and a Bode plot of the
frequency response of this function.
