Control Systems Lab: Submitted by

This document summarizes a control systems lab experiment on root locus analysis. The objectives were to analyze the effect of open loop poles and zeros on root locus shape, and to use root locus to estimate the effect of open loop gain on closed loop system transient response. Procedures involved using MATLAB to plot root loci and step responses for different values of a zero location and open loop gain. Key results showed that as the zero moves rightward or gain increases, settling time and overshoot increase, indicating less stability. Learning outcomes were familiarization with MATLAB tools and observation of stability degradation from zero/gain changes.

Introduction to Root Locus
1. Objectives:
To verify the effect of open loop poles and zeros upon the shape of the root locus and to verify the root locus
as a tool for estimating the effect of open-loop gain upon the transient response of closed-loop systems. To
use MATLAB to design the gain of a controller via root locus.

2. Procedures:
2.1. Lab Task 1:
 Using MATLAB’s SISO Design Tool, set up a negative unity feedback system with.

 Root locus of following system where roots of system shows stable behavior.

 To produce a root locus. We, set up the zero at -6 using SISO Design Tool’s compensator function by
simply dragging a zero to -6 on the resulting root locus. Print the root locus for the zero at -6. Move
the zero to the following locations and print out a root locus at each location: -2, -1.5, -1.37, and -1.2.
Zero at -6:
 Root locus of following system where roots of system shows stable behavior.

 Step response following above root locus system shows stable behavior for this.
 System at with zero at -6 shows this response.
Zero at -2:
 Root locus of following system where roots of system shows stable behavior.

 Step response following above root locus system shows stable behavior for this.

 As system shifts towards origin Settling time increases also rise time.
Zero at -1.5:
 Root locus of following system where roots of system shows stable behavior.
 Step response following above root locus system shows stable behavior for this.

 Further pushing system toward right settling time increases shows system is shifting from stability.
Zero at -1.37:
 Root locus of following system where roots of system shows stable behavior.

 Step response following above root locus system shows stable behavior for this.
 We observe similar behavior as it move further to right.
Zero at -1:
 Root locus of following system where roots of system shows stable behavior.

 Step response following above root locus system shows stable behavior for this.

 As settling time reach 17.5sec it shows maximum level of settling time.

2.2. Lab task 2:


 Using MATLAB’s SISO Design Tool, set up a negative unity feedback system with

 to produce a root locus. Open the LTI Viewer for SISO Design Tool to show step responses. Using the
values of K specified in Prelab2, record the percent overshoot and settling time and print the root loci
and step response for each value of K.
Gain at 20:
 Root locus of following system where roots of system shows stable behavior.

 Step response following above root locus system shows stable behavior for this.
Gain 50:

 Root locus of following system where roots of system shows stable behavior.

 Step response following above root locus system shows stable behavior for this.

 As gain increases system moves toward the instability thus increases stability and settling time and
possibly frequency ѡ d .
Gain 85:
 Root locus of following system where roots of system shows stable behavior.
 Step response following above root locus system shows stable behavior for this.

 As gain increases system moves toward the instability thus increases stability and settling time and
possibly frequency ѡ d .

Gain 200:

 Root locus of following system where roots of system shows stable behavior.

 Step response following above root locus system shows stable behavior for this.
 As gain increases system moves toward the instability thus increases stability and settling time and
possibly frequency ѡ d .
Gain 7000:
 Root locus of following system where roots of system shows stable behavior.

 Step response following above root locus system shows stable behavior for this.

 As gain increases system moves toward the instability thus increases stability and settling time and
possibly frequency ѡ d .

Learning Outcomes:
 We were able familiarize ourselves with MATLAB’s SISO Design Tool.
 We saw as zero moves towards right from left half plane it cross pond to increase in system overshoot
and settling time.
 Also when gain is increased system is pushed toward instable behavior i.e. more settling time with
more overshoot and probably more oscillations.
