A-'7-6. Consider a system with an unstable plant as shown in Figure 7-34(a). Using the root-locus
approach, design a proportional-plus-derivative controller (that is, determine the values of K,
and T ~ ) such that the damping ratio of the closed-loop system is 0.7 and the undamped natural
frequency w, is 0.5 radlsec.
Solution. Note that the open-loop transfer function involves two poles at s = 1.085 and s = -1.085 ..
and one zero at s = -l/Td, which is unknown at this point.
Since the desired closed-loop poles must have w, = 0.5 rad/sec and f = 0.7, they must be
located at
s = 0.5/180 f. 45.573"
(6 = 0.7 corresponds to a line having an angle of 45.573" with the negative real axis.) Hence, the
desired closed-loop poles are at
The open-loop poles and the desired closed-loop pole in the upper half-plane are located in the
diagram shown in Figure 7-34(b). The angle deficiency at point s = -0.35 f j0.357 is

This means that the zero at s = -l / Td must contribute 11.939", which, in turn, determines the
location of the zero as follows:
Hence, we have
The value of T, is
The value of gain Kp can be determined from the magnitude condition as follows:
or
Hence,
By substituting the numerical values of Td and Kp into Equation (7-12), we obtain
which gives the transfer function of the desired proportional-plus-derivative controller.
A-7-7. Consider the control system shown in Figure 7-35. Design a lag compensator G,(s) such that the
static velocity error constant K, is 50 sec-' without appreciably changing the location of the orig-
inal closed-loop poles, which are at s = -2 d~ j f i .

5 Homework-5 Solution
Solution. Assume that the transfer function of the lag compensator is
Since K , is specified as 50 sec-', we have
Thus
Now choose K, = 1. Then
Choose T = 10. Then the lag compensator can be given by
The angle contribution of the lag compensator at the closed-loop pole s = -2 + jV6' is

s=- 2+j G -1.9 -1.995
which is small.Thus the change in the location of the dominant closed-loop poles is very small.
The open-loop transfer function of the system becomes
The closed-loop transfer function is
To compare the transient-response characteristics before and after the compensation, the unit-step
and unit-ramp responses of the compensated and uncompensated systems are shown in Figures

A-7-44. Consider a unity-feedback control system whose feedforward transfer function is given by
Design a compensator such that the dominant closed-loop poles are located at s = -2 f @V"3
and the static velocity error constant K, is equal to 80 sec-'.
Solution. The static velocity error constant of the uncompensated system is K, = # = 0.625.
Since K, = 80 is required, we need to increase the open-loop gain by 128. (This implies that we
need a lag compensator.) The root-locus plot of the uncompensated system reveals that it is not
possible to bring the dominant closed-loop poles to -2 -+ j 2 s by just a gain adjustment alone.
See Figure 7-37. (This means that we also need a lead compensator.) Therefore, we shall employ
a lag-lead compensator.
Let us assume that the transfer function of the lag-lead compensator to be
where Kc = 128. This is because

and we obtain Kc = 128. The angle deficiency at the desired closed-loop pole s = -2 + j 2 f l is
Angle deficiency = 120" + 90" + 30" - 180" = 60"
The lead portion of the lag-lead compensator must contribute this angle.To choose Tl we may use
the graphical method presented in Section 7-5.
The lead portion must satisfy the following conditions:
and
The first condition can be simplified as
By using the same approach as used in Section 7-5, the zero ( s = 1 1 ~ ~ ) and pole ( s = PIT,) can
be determined as follows:
See Figure 7-38. The value of P is thus determined as
/3 = 14.419

Then
Noting that
the angle contribution of the lag portion is -1.697" and the magnitude contribution is 0.9837.This
means that the dominant closed-loop poles lie close to the desired location s = -2 & j 2 G . Thus
the compensator designed,
is acceptable. The feedforward transfer function of the compensated system becomes

A-7-9. Consider the system shown in Figure 7-41. Design a lag-lead compensator such that the static
velocity error constant K, is 50 sec-' and the damping ratio 5 of the dominant closed-loop poles

12 Homework-5 Solution
We now choose Tl = 1 so that s + ( 1 1 ~ ~ ) will cancel the (s + 1) term of the plant. The lead
portion then becomes
For the lag portion of the lag-lead compensator we require
where s = s1 is one of the dominant closed-loop poles. For s = sl , the open-loop transfer func-
tion becomes
Noting that at s = sl the magnitude and angle conditions are satisfied, we have
where k = 0,1,2,. . . . In Equations (7-13) and (7-14), P and s, are unknowns. Since the damping
ratio 5 of the dominant closed-loop poles is specified as 0.5, the closed-loop pole s = s1 can be writ-
ten as
where x is as yet undetermined.
Notice that the magnitude condition, Equation (7-13), can be rewritten as
Noting that Kc = 250, we have
The angle condition, Equation (7-14), can be rewritten as
Chapter 7 / Control Systems Design by the Root-Locus Method
13 Homework-5 Solution
We need to solve Equations (7-15) and (7-16) for P and x. By several trial-and-error calculations,
it can be found that
Thus
The lag portion of the lag-lead compensator can be determined as follows: Noting that the pole
and zero of the lag portion of the compensator must be located near the origin, we may choose
That is,
With the choice of T2 = 6.25, we find

-1.74515 -1.89054
Since
our choice of T2 = 6.25 is acceptable. Then the lag-lead compensator just designed can be writ-
ten as
Therefore, the compensated system has the following open-loop transfer function:

Notice that the dominant closed-loop poles s = -1.8308 f j3.2359 differ from the dominant
closed-loop poles s = hs, assumed in the computation of P and T,. Small deviations of the dom-
inant closed-loop poles s = -1.8308 h j3.2359 from s = f s, = -1.9054 + j3.3002 are due to the
approximations involved in determining the lag portion of the compensator [See Equations (7-17)
and (7-18)].
Figures 7-43(a) and (b) show the unit-step response and unit-ramp response of the de-
signed system, respectively. Note that the closed-loop pole at s = -0.1684 almost cancels the
zero at s = -0.16025. However, this pair of closed-loop pole and zero located near the origin
produces a long tail of small amplitude. Since the closed-loop pole at s = -17.205 is located
Example Problems and Solutions 47 3
16 Homework-5 Solution
very much farther to the left compared to the closed-loop poles at s = -1.8308 + j3.2359, the
effect of this real pole on the system response is very small. Therefore, the closed-loop poles
at s = -1.8308 f j3.2359 are indeed dominant closed-loop poles that determine the response
characteristics of the closed-loop system. In the unit-ramp response, the steady-state error in
following the unit-ramp input eventually becomes 1/K, = $ = 0.02.
A-7-10. Figure 7-44(a) is a block diagram of a model for an attitude-rate control system.The closed-loop
transfer function for this system is
The unit-step response of this system is shown in Figure 7-44(b). The response shows high-
frequency oscillations at the beginning of the response due to the poles at s = -0.0417 & j2.4489.
The response is dominated by the pole at s = -0.0167. The settling time is approximately 240 sec.
It is desired to speed up the response and also eliminate the oscillatory mode at the beginning
of the response. Design a suitable compensator such that the dominant closed-loop poles are at

where k = 0,1,2,. . . . In Equations (7-13) and (7-14), P and s, are unknowns. Since the damping
ratio 5 of the dominant closed-loop poles is specified as 0.5, the closed-loop pole s = s1 can be writ-
ten as
where x is as yet undetermined.
Notice that the magnitude condition, Equation (7-13), can be rewritten as
Noting that Kc = 250, we have
The angle condition, Equation (7-14), can be rewritten as

We need to solve Equations (7-15) and (7-16) for P and x. By several trial-and-error calculations,
it can be found that
Thus
The lag portion of the lag-lead compensator can be determined as follows: Noting that the pole
and zero of the lag portion of the compensator must be located near the origin, we may choose
That is,
With the choice of T2 = 6.25, we find

Since
our choice of T2 = 6.25 is acceptable. Then the lag-lead compensator just designed can be writ-
ten as
Therefore, the compensated system has the following open-loop transfer function:

Notice that the dominant closed-loop poles s = -1.8308 f j3.2359 differ from the dominant
closed-loop poles s = hs, assumed in the computation of P and T,. Small deviations of the dom-
inant closed-loop poles s = -1.8308 h j3.2359 from s = f s, = -1.9054 + j3.3002 are due to the
approximations involved in determining the lag portion of the compensator [See Equations (7-17)
and (7-18)].
Figures 7-43(a) and (b) show the unit-step response and unit-ramp response of the de-
signed system, respectively. Note that the closed-loop pole at s = -0.1684 almost cancels the
zero at s = -0.16025. However, this pair of closed-loop pole and zero located near the origin
produces a long tail of small amplitude. Since the closed-loop pole at s = -17.205 is located

very much farther to the left compared to the closed-loop poles at s = -1.8308 + j3.2359, the
effect of this real pole on the system response is very small. Therefore, the closed-loop poles
at s = -1.8308 f j3.2359 are indeed dominant closed-loop poles that determine the response
characteristics of the closed-loop system. In the unit-ramp response, the steady-state error in
following the unit-ramp input eventually becomes 1/K, = $ = 0.02.

transfer function for this system is
The unit-step response of this system is shown in Figure 7-44(b). The response shows high-
frequency oscillations at the beginning of the response due to the poles at s = -0.0417 & j2.4489.
The response is dominated by the pole at s = -0.0167. The settling time is approximately 240 sec.
It is desired to speed up the response and also eliminate the oscillatory mode at the beginning
of the response. Design a suitable compensator such that the dominant closed-loop poles are at
