Exercise

If a closed-loop system has a set of complex conjugate poles at \(p=-2.5\pm j 4.33\) and no zeros, what is the system's natural frequency, damping ratio, overshoot, and settling time?

Exercise

Given the block diagram in figure 7.4a, with \(K=1\), \[G(s)=\frac{0.5}{s+0.5}\ ,\] and \(H=1\),

  1. Find the closed-loop transfer function.
  2. Find the location of the closed-loop poles.
  3. Determine if the closed-loop system is stable.

Exercise

Let a system have the plant transfer function \[G_P(s) = \frac{10}{(s+2)(s+5)}.\] Design a PI controller such that the closed-loop system has an overshoot of \(20\) percent and zero steady-state error.

Exercise

Given the unity feedback system shown in the block diagram of figure 7.23, do the following:

  1. Design a PI controller \(G_C\) to yield a closed-loop system with about a 15 percent overshoot and minimal settling time.
  2. Plot the system response.
  3. Determine \(K_I\) and \(K_P\).
