( N The Nyquist stability criterion is a stability test for linear, time-invariant systems and is performed in the frequency domain. = Conclusions can also be reached by examining the open loop transfer function (OLTF) Nyquist stability criterion states the number of encirclements about the critical point (1+j0) must be equal to the poles of characteristic equation, which is nothing but the poles of the open loop transfer function in the right half of the s plane. {\displaystyle G(s)} can be expressed as the ratio of two polynomials: / Figure 19.3 : Unity Feedback Confuguration. In \(\gamma (\omega)\) the variable is a greek omega and in \(w = G \circ \gamma\) we have a double-u. The mathematics uses the Laplace transform, which transforms integrals and derivatives in the time domain to simple multiplication and division in the s domain. j H ( ) To use this criterion, the frequency response data of a system must be presented as a polar plot in which the magnitude and the phase angle are expressed as {\displaystyle Z} Also suppose that \(G(s)\) decays to 0 as \(s\) goes to infinity.

Any Laplace domain transfer function We will look a little more closely at such systems when we study the Laplace transform in the next topic. We first construct the Nyquist contour, a contour that encompasses the right-half of the complex plane: The Nyquist contour mapped through the function ( ) In order to establish the reference for stability and instability of the closed-loop system corresponding to Equation \(\ref{eqn:17.18}\), we determine the loci of roots from the characteristic equation, \(1+G H=0\), or, \[s^{3}+3 s^{2}+28 s+26+\Lambda\left(s^{2}+4 s+104\right)=s^{3}+(3+\Lambda) s^{2}+4(7+\Lambda) s+26(1+4 \Lambda)=0\label{17.19} \]. s Rearranging, we have {\displaystyle N} s . ) G ( F where \(k\) is called the feedback factor. {\displaystyle F} Note that a closed-loop-stable case has \(0<1 / \mathrm{GM}_{\mathrm{S}}<1\) so that \(\mathrm{GM}_{\mathrm{S}}>1\), and a closed-loop-unstable case has \(1 / \mathrm{GM}_{\mathrm{U}}>1\) so that \(0<\mathrm{GM}_{\mathrm{U}}<1\). {\displaystyle G(s)} times, where ) G . The Nyquist criterion is a graphical technique for telling whether an unstable linear time invariant system can be stabilized using a negative feedback loop. the number of the counterclockwise encirclements of \(1\) point by the Nyquist plot in the \(GH\)-plane is equal to the number of the unstable poles of the open-loop transfer function. Non-linear systems must use more complex stability criteria, such as Lyapunov or the circle criterion. = Lecture 1: The Nyquist Criterion S.D. The most common use of Nyquist plots is for assessing the stability of a system with feedback. ( s s \(G_{CL}\) is stable exactly when all its poles are in the left half-plane. ( inside the contour In units of In contrast to Bode plots, it can handle transfer functions with right half-plane singularities. Gain margin (GM) is defined by Equation 17.1.8, from which we find, \[\frac{1}{G M(\Lambda)}=|O L F R F(\omega)|_{\mid} \mid \text {at }\left.\angle O L F R F(\omega)\right|_{\Lambda}=-180^{\circ}\label{eqn:17.17} \]. r Choose \(R\) large enough that the (finite number) of poles and zeros of \(G\) in the right half-plane are all inside \(\gamma_R\). s A Closed loop approximation f.d.t. will encircle the point s This is just to give you a little physical orientation. ) The frequency is swept as a parameter, resulting in a pl 0000039854 00000 n The Nyquist criterion allows us to assess the stability properties of a feedback system based on P ( s) C ( s) only. It is informative and it will turn out to be even more general to extract the same stability margins from Nyquist plots of frequency response. The Bode plot for In signal processing, the Nyquist frequency, named after Harry Nyquist, is a characteristic of a sampler, which converts a continuous function or signal into a discrete sequence. + (ii) Determine the range of \ ( k \) to ensure a stable closed loop response. The most common use of Nyquist plots is for assessing the stability of a system with feedback. s P 0 entire right half plane. , the result is the Nyquist Plot of The condition for the stability of the system in 19.3 is assured if the zeros of 1 + L are all in the left half of the complex plane. That is, we consider clockwise encirclements to be positive and counterclockwise encirclements to be negative. D s The poles are \(-2, \pm 2i\). Since \(G_{CL}\) is a system function, we can ask if the system is stable. So the winding number is -1, which does not equal the number of poles of \(G\) in the right half-plane. G , using its Bode plots or, as here, its polar plot using the Nyquist criterion, as follows. s The Nyquist plot is the graph of \(kG(i \omega)\). By counting the resulting contour's encirclements of 1, we find the difference between the number of poles and zeros in the right-half complex plane of Nyquist plot of the transfer function s/(s-1)^3. G This assumption holds in many interesting cases. {\displaystyle F(s)} s The Nyquist bandwidth is defined to be the frequency spectrum from dc to fs/2.The frequency spectrum is divided into an infinite number of Nyquist zones, each having a width equal to 0.5fs as shown. {\displaystyle G(s)} ( is determined by the values of its poles: for stability, the real part of every pole must be negative. Is the system with system function \(G(s) = \dfrac{s}{(s + 2) (s^2 + 4)}\) stable? {\displaystyle 0+j\omega } The frequency-response curve leading into that loop crosses the \(\operatorname{Re}[O L F R F]\) axis at about \(-0.315+j 0\); if we were to use this phase crossover to calculate gain margin, then we would find \(\mathrm{GM} \approx 1 / 0.315=3.175=10.0\) dB. drawn in the complex that appear within the contour, that is, within the open right half plane (ORHP). MT-002. For the Nyquist plot and criterion the curve \(\gamma\) will always be the imaginary \(s\)-axis. u r F j ( clockwise. Is the closed loop system stable when \(k = 2\). Nyquist Stability Criterion A feedback system is stable if and only if \(N=-P\), i.e. The poles of \(G\). For these values of \(k\), \(G_{CL}\) is unstable. Stability in the Nyquist Plot. D The Nyquist criterion is a graphical technique for telling whether an unstable linear time invariant system can be stabilized using a negative feedback loop. {\displaystyle 0+j(\omega +r)} s l With a little imagination, we infer from the Nyquist plots of Figure \(\PageIndex{1}\) that the open-loop system represented in that figure has \(\mathrm{GM}>0\) and \(\mathrm{PM}>0\) for \(0<\Lambda<\Lambda_{\mathrm{ns}}\), and that \(\mathrm{GM}>0\) and \(\mathrm{PM}>0\) for all values of gain \(\Lambda\) greater than \(\Lambda_{\mathrm{ns}}\); accordingly, the associated closed-loop system is stable for \(0<\Lambda<\Lambda_{\mathrm{ns}}\), and unstable for all values of gain \(\Lambda\) greater than \(\Lambda_{\mathrm{ns}}\). In signal processing, the Nyquist frequency, named after Harry Nyquist, is a characteristic of a sampler, which converts a continuous function or signal into a discrete sequence. s + These are the same systems as in the examples just above. Another aspect of the difference between the plots on the two figures is particularly significant: whereas the plots on Figure \(\PageIndex{1}\) cross the negative \(\operatorname{Re}[O L F R F]\) axis only once as driving frequency \(\omega\) increases, those on Figure \(\PageIndex{4}\) have two phase crossovers, i.e., the phase angle is 180 for two different values of \(\omega\). . + For this we will use one of the MIT Mathlets (slightly modified for our purposes). The portions of both Nyquist plots (for \(\Lambda_{n s 2}\) and \(\Lambda=18.5\)) that are closest to the negative \(\operatorname{Re}[O L F R F]\) axis are shown on Figure \(\PageIndex{6}\), which was produced by the MATLAB commands that produced Figure \(\PageIndex{4}\), except with gains 18.5 and \(\Lambda_{n s 2}\) replacing, respectively, gains 0.7 and \(\Lambda_{n s 1}\). F The row s 3 elements have 2 as the common factor. Double control loop for unstable systems. ( Equation \(\ref{eqn:17.17}\) is illustrated on Figure \(\PageIndex{2}\) for both closed-loop stable and unstable cases. of the The poles of \(G(s)\) correspond to what are called modes of the system. {\displaystyle {\mathcal {T}}(s)} ( If we were to test experimentally the open-loop part of this system in order to determine the stability of the closed-loop system, what would the open-loop frequency responses be for different values of gain \(\Lambda\)? s {\displaystyle Z} \(G\) has one pole in the right half plane. 0 The left hand graph is the pole-zero diagram.

If, on the other hand, we were to calculate gain margin using the other phase crossing, at about \(-0.04+j 0\), then that would lead to the exaggerated \(\mathrm{GM} \approx 25=28\) dB, which is obviously a defective metric of stability. We know from Figure \(\PageIndex{3}\) that this case of \(\Lambda=4.75\) is closed-loop unstable. Does the system have closed-loop poles outside the unit circle? ) ) {\displaystyle GH(s)={\frac {A(s)}{B(s)}}} ( ) There are no poles in the right half-plane. s represents how slow or how fast is a reaction is. ) In using \(\text { PM }\) this way, a phase margin of 30 is often judged to be the lowest acceptable \(\text { PM }\), with values above 30 desirable.. . However, the Nyquist Criteria can also give us additional information about a system. = s s P 0 ( s The Nyquist plot of So in the limit \(kG \circ \gamma_R\) becomes \(kG \circ \gamma\). To simulate that testing, we have from Equation \(\ref{eqn:17.18}\), the following equation for the frequency-response function: \[O L F R F(\omega) \equiv O L T F(j \omega)=\Lambda \frac{104-\omega^{2}+4 \times j \omega}{(1+j \omega)\left(26-\omega^{2}+2 \times j \omega\right)}\label{eqn:17.20} \]. Is the closed loop system stable when \(k = 2\). The Nyquist method is used for studying the stability of linear systems with pure time delay. s We suppose that we have a clockwise (i.e. Graphical method of determining the stability of a dynamical system, The Nyquist criterion for systems with poles on the imaginary axis, "Chapter 4.3.

The argument principle from complex analysis gives a criterion to calculate the difference between the number of zeros and the number of poles of Lecture 2: Stability Criteria S.D. N 1 Stability is determined by looking at the number of encirclements of the point (1, 0). The correct Nyquist rate is defined in terms of the system Bandwidth (in the frequency domain) which is determined by the Point Spread Function. While sampling at the Nyquist rate is a very good idea, it is in many practical situations hard to attain. s 0000001731 00000 n Matrix Result This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License. {\displaystyle \Gamma _{G(s)}} Z {\displaystyle G(s)} by Cauchy's argument principle. and travels anticlockwise to Rule 1. The formula is an easy way to read off the values of the poles and zeros of \(G(s)\). ( Since there are poles on the imaginary axis, the system is marginally stable. \(\PageIndex{4}\) includes the Nyquist plots for both \(\Lambda=0.7\) and \(\Lambda =\Lambda_{n s 1}\), the latter of which by definition crosses the negative \(\operatorname{Re}[O L F R F]\) axis at the point \(-1+j 0\), not far to the left of where the \(\Lambda=0.7\) plot crosses at about \(-0.73+j 0\); therefore, it might be that the appropriate value of gain margin for \(\Lambda=0.7\) is found from \(1 / \mathrm{GM}_{0.7} \approx 0.73\), so that \(\mathrm{GM}_{0.7} \approx 1.37=2.7\) dB, a small gain margin indicating that the closed-loop system is just weakly stable. of poles of T(s)). In control theory and stability theory, the Nyquist stability criterion or StreckerNyquist stability criterion, independently discovered by the German electrical engineer Felix Strecker[de] at Siemens in 1930[1][2][3] and the Swedish-American electrical engineer Harry Nyquist at Bell Telephone Laboratories in 1932,[4] is a graphical technique for determining the stability of a dynamical system. s s As \(k\) increases, somewhere between \(k = 0.65\) and \(k = 0.7\) the winding number jumps from 0 to 2 and the closed loop system becomes stable. Here, \(\gamma\) is the imaginary \(s\)-axis and \(P_{G, RHP}\) is the number o poles of the original open loop system function \(G(s)\) in the right half-plane. s If we set \(k = 3\), the closed loop system is stable.

The Nyquist criterion allows us to answer two questions: 1. in the new 1 ) {\displaystyle -1+j0} ) ). If the number of poles is greater than the number of zeros, then the Nyquist criterion tells us how to use the Nyquist plot to graphically determine the stability of the closed loop system. The most common use of Nyquist plots is for assessing the stability of a system with feedback. ) k ( For example, Brogan, 1974, page 25, wrote Experience has shown that acceptable transient response will usually require stability margins on the order of \(\mathrm{PM}>30^{\circ}\), \(\mathrm{GM}>6\) dB.
