The plant H(s)=40/(S^2+4) is now put in a unity-feedbackconnection with a proportionalderivative compensator
Cpd(s) = K(1 + sT), where K and T are real constants to bedetermined. The closed-loop is stable with a constant step-responseerror of +20% in steady state. Ignore implementation issues arisingfrom the improperness of the compensator. (a)Determine K.
(b)What range of values can T take?
(c) What is the gain margin?
(d) If the gain cross-over frequency is 10 rad/s, determine thephase margin in radians.
(e) Assuming gain cross-over at 10 rad/s, sketch the Bodediagrams for the open-loop transfer function. Indicate and evaluateall relevant features: asymptotes, asymptotic slopes, anybreakpoints, and the exact magnitude and phase at eachbreakpoint.
(f) Suppose there is a delay ∆ > 0 (s) in the plant, inseries with H(s). i. Briefly explain whether or not this this wouldchange the gain cross-over frequency. ii. What range of ∆ could betolerated? What would happen to the closed-loop system for ∆ valuesoutside this range?
(g) A colleague of yours decides to instead use an alternativecompensator of form Ca(s) = k(1 + sτ )(s 2 + 4) (1 + sτ0) 3 in aunity-feedback configuration with H(s). He claims this effectively‘removes’ the plant dynamics, and simplifies his controller design.He chooses positive constants k, τ and τ0 that ensure stability ofthe transfer function from the reference r to output y, andimplements his design on the physical plant. However, the physicalsystem does not behave as he anticipated. Explain what he observes,and why.
