Linear Control Systems

Unit 5: Frequency Domain Analysis of Control Systems

Learning objectives
To state the definition of frequency response To be able to draw frequency response from the transfer functions To relate the open-loop frequency response to time domain response To calculate the gain and phase margins of the system from the frequency response To understand the concept of bandwidth.

Closed-loop Control System

To design a controller, it is very important to know the dynamics of the process. The process can be best modeled in frequency domain.

Process

Concept of frequency response: An example


Consider the following circuit where the input V1(s) is a sinusoidal signal, the output V2(s) will also be a sinusoidal signal with the same frequency, but different amplitude and phase shift.

G(s) = Output/input = V2(s)/V1(s)

Frequency domain

Frequency response: Polar plot

Frequency response: Bode plot

Bandwidth of a system

The bandwidth is the frequency, B , at which the frequency declined 3 dB from its low-frequency values.

Summary

Frequency response of the open-loop system can be used to predict the time domain response of the system. The relative stability of the closed-loop system can be assessed through the notation of gain margin and phase margin. The control system design becomes to shape up the open-loop frequency response.
