Agamirza Fataliyev Quiz 3

1. Please, describe multiloop feedback system with an inner loop and outer loop.

A multiloop feedback system with an inner loop and an outer loop we can draw below. The little one,
which is inside the system (number 2) is our inner loop which has controller, actuator and process blocks
including sensor and under number 1 we have outer loop (the bigger one) which also includes controller
and sensor.

2. Please, shortly explain steady-state errors with table.

The steady-state error is calculated using final value theorem: Ess=lim E ( s)


s→0

Depending on the number of integrations, or in other words, the power of “s” in the denominator, the
steady-state error has different values for different test signals. For step input, type 0 system has a finite
error, and calculated using position error constant. Type 1 and 2 systems have 0 error.

For ramp, type 0 has infinite error, type 1 is calculated using velocity error constant. Type 2 has 0 error.

For parabolic input, type 0 and 1 have infinite error, while the type 2 is calculated using acceleration
constant.

4. Please, describe PI controller.


The general equation of transfer function for PID controller:

Gc (s) = KP + KI / s + KD s

For it to be PI controller, we will have KD set to 0, so it will be proportional and integral controller:

Gc (s) = KP + KI / s.

5. Please, according to asymptotic curves approximate it’s transfer function.

From graphs it can be seen that they are for zeros and the possible transfer function can be
jw
G ( jw )=1+
w1
6. Please, explain 2nd order performance specification in the frequency domain with help of step
response.
2
wn
The tf of second order system is: T ( s )= 2 2
s +2 e wn s +w n

This graph is the according frequency response. Here w r is resonant frequency, w b bandwidth, M is
maximum magnitude of response.

As M increases, means that overshoot also increases.


As w b is larger, the rise time is smaller.

The bandwidth is the frequency at which the frequency response is -3dB.

So, better response for second order system is small M and large bandwidth.

7. Please, see below plot and write how many poles or zeros in RHP of it’s transfer function

We can get the difference of the number of zeros and poles from the picture. The number of
encirclements of the origin is equal to the difference. We see that the origin is encircled 1 time,
so the difference is 1 according to Cauchy’s theorem. The number of poles is assumed to be 0,
then the number of zeros is 1.

8. Please, find compensator according to plot type and its advantages.

There are 2 types of compensators: Lead and lag

The provided bode plot is characteristic for Phase-lead compensator. It has a characteristic transfer
K 1∗1+ jwat
function of: Gc ( jw )=
1+ jwt
Here,

t = 1/p;

p = a*z;

K1 = K/a;
p is pole and z is zero of the compensator transfer function.

The advantage of it is that it adds phase-lead angle and efficient phase margin for the control system.

The disadvantage of it is that they are not designed for high-steady state accuracy.

9. Please, explain shortly transfer function determination from state-space equation.

To detemine the tf from the state equations, we assume that the system is Single input single output.

The state equations are:

x*=Ax+Bu

y=Cx+Du

Here x is state matrix, u is input, x- is determinants of state matrix and y is output. The Laplace
transform of these equations are:

sX(s)=AX(s)+BU(s)

Y(s)=CX(s)+DU(s)
−1
Modifying the first equation, we get: X ( s ) =( sI− A ) BU (s)
We replace the first matrix with f(s) and putting the equation for X(s) to the second equation, get:

Y(s)=(Cf(s)B+D)U(s)

Y
So, the tf is: =Cf ( s ) B+ D
U

10. Per given information, please build state feedback matrix.


A = [ 0 1 0 ; 0 0 1; -4 -1 -5] ; B = [0 ; 0 ; 1 ] ; C = [1 0 0 ], K = [k1 k2 k3]

State feedback matrix is:


A – BK

Common questions

Powered by AI

A phase-lead compensator is characterized by its unique transfer function: Gc(jw) = K1*(1+jwz)/(1+jwp), where z and p are the zero and pole respectively, and K1 is a gain constant. The compensator provides a phase-lead angle which increases the system's phase margin, enhancing stability and transient response. However, it sacrifices high steady-state accuracy. This is beneficial in applications where improved transient response and stability are prioritized over steady-state precision .

The number of poles and zeros in the right-half plane of a transfer function can be deduced from a Nyquist plot using Cauchy's theorem. The plot's encirclement of the origin indicates the difference between the number of poles and zeros in the right-half plane. Each complete encirclement equates to a change of one in this difference. By knowing the assumed number of poles, the number of zeros can be calculated or vice versa. For example, with one encirclement and zero poles, the number of zeros is one .

A state feedback matrix is designed to modify the system dynamics by feeding the state vector back through a gain matrix K (K = [k1 k2 k3]), influencing control input. For a system with given A, B, C matrices, the state feedback matrix is formulated as A - BK, where B is the control input matrix. This matrix tuning stabilizes the system by placing its poles in desired locations in the S-plane, thereby controlling system specifications like settling time and damping .

A multiloop feedback system with inner and outer loops includes an inner feedback loop with controller, actuator, process blocks, and a sensor arranged within the system, while the outer loop also contains a controller and a sensor. The inner loop (marked as system 2) executes finer control by managing detailed dynamics, and the outer loop (system 1) provides broader regulation ensuring system stability and performance .

A second-order system's frequency domain performance is characterized by parameters like resonant frequency (wr), bandwidth (wb), and peak magnitude (M). Overshoot is directly related to M; a higher M indicates greater overshoot. A larger bandwidth (wb) leads to a smaller rise time, which implies a faster system response. The bandwidth also defines the frequency at which the system's frequency response is -3dB, affecting how quickly the system can react to changes .

A PI (Proportional-Integral) controller is a control loop feedback mechanism with two parameters: proportional gain (KP) and integral gain (KI). In its transfer function, represented as Gc(s) = KP + KI/s, the derivative component (KD) is set to zero. This configuration helps eliminate residual steady-state errors that pure proportional controllers cannot remove, by integrating the error over time and adjusting accordingly .

A phase-lead compensator enhances phase margin and improves transient response but sacrifices steady-state performance. Its design focus on increasing phase lead and transient behavior generally does not cater to achieving low steady-state errors, making it less suitable where precision accuracy in steady-state operation is crucial. Thus, it's more effective for applications where dynamic performance is prioritized over steady-state accuracy .

To derive a transfer function from state-space representation, we start from the state equations: x* = Ax + Bu and y = Cx + Du. Applying the Laplace transform yields sX(s) = AX(s) + BU(s) and Y(s) = CX(s) + DU(s). This offers X(s) = (sI - A)^-1BU(s). Substituting X(s) back into the output equation gives Y(s) = C(sI - A)^-1B + D)U(s). Therefore, the transfer function is represented as Y/U = C(sI - A)^-1B + D .

The steady-state error (Ess) is determined by the final value theorem and depends on the system type and input signal. For step inputs, type 0 systems have a finite error determined by the position error constant, while type 1 and 2 have zero error. For ramp inputs, a type 0 system shows infinite error, type 1 is finite as given by the velocity error constant, and type 2 has zero error. For parabolic inputs, types 0 and 1 show infinite error, while type 2 has a finite error determined by the acceleration constant .

Stability of a polynomial is often determined by its characteristic equation and the location of its roots in the complex plane. For the given polynomials, stability can be assessed by ensuring that all roots have negative real parts. For instance, in the case of Q1 and Q2, by applying standard criteria such as the Routh-Hurwitz test, it can be confirmed that the roots do not have positive real parts, indicating stability. Each polynomial's coefficients and any gain parameter adjustments (K) directly influence this stability .
