Lecture 18 Static Error Constants and System Type

The document summarizes key topics from Chapter 7 of the textbook "Control Systems Engineering" relating to steady-state error analysis of linear control systems. It defines static error constants like position, velocity, and acceleration constants that characterize steady-state error performance. It also discusses how steady-state error is affected by system type and disturbances. Examples are provided to illustrate how to determine static error constants, interpret specifications, and calculate steady-state error due to disturbances.

System Type

Performance specifications for the
transient response
• damping ratio,
• natural frequency,
• settling time,
• percent overshoot,
• Peak time
• Rise time
Parameters that can be used as steady-state error
performance specifications, are called

static error constants

• The three terms in the denominator that
are taken to the limit determine the steady-
Static Error Constants state error.
• These limits are the static error constants.
For a step input, u(t),
Position Constant, Kp

System Type

Since steady-state errors are dependent upon the number of integrations in


the forward path, a name is given to this system attribute

system type is defined to be the value ofnin the denominator.


Thus:
a system with n = 0 is a Type 0 system
n=1 is a Type 1 system
n=2 is a Type 2 system

7.4 Steady-State Error
Specifications

Just as
damping ratio, ζ
settling time, Ts
peak time, Tp
percent overshoot, % OS
are used as specifications for a control system's
transient response

Position constant, Kp
Velocity constant, Kv
Acceleration constant, Ka

are used as specifications for a control system's


steady-state errors

12
Wealth of information contained within the
specification of a static error constant
For example, if a control system has the specification Kv = 1000,
we can draw several conclusions:
1. The system is stable.
2. The system is of Type 1, since only Type 1 systems have Kv's that are finite
constants.
Recall that Kv = 0 for Type 0 systems
Kv =  for Type 2 systems
3. A ramp input is the test signal.
Since Kv is specified as a finite constant, and the steady-state error for a
ramp input is inversely proportional to Kv, we know the test input is a ramp.
4. The steady-state error between the input ramp and the output ramp is 1/Kv per unit
of input.

Example 7.5 Interpreting the Steady-State Error Specification

PROBLEM:
What information is contained in the specification Kp = 1000?

SOLUTION:
• The system is stable.
• The system is Type 0, since only a Type 0 system has a
finite Kp. Type 1 and Type 2 systems have Kp = 
• The input test signal is a step, since Kp is specified.
• The error per unit step is

Example 7.6 Gain Design to Meet a Steady-State Error Specification

PROBLEM: Given the control


system in the Figure, find the
value of K so that there is 10%
error in the steady state.

SOLUTION: Since the system is Type 1, the error stated in


the problem must apply to a ramp input; only a ramp yields
a finite error in a Type 1 system. Thus,
