THEORYQuestion

Using Bode plot determine the phase and gain margin for the system with transfer function given by equation (Q3) and comment on the system relative stability. G(jω)=1jω(jω+1)(0.2jω+1)G(j\omega) = \frac{1}{j\omega(j\omega+1)(0.2j\omega+1)}

THEORYQuestion

Assuming the resulting system model from identification process and the controller transfer function are given by equations (Q4a) and (Q5b) respectively. Using both methods due to Ziegler-Nichols assuming ultimate gain (KcK_c') of 2626 and ultimate frequency of oscillation (ωu\omega_u) of 1515 rad/s, design PID controller for this system and compare the two results. Gp(s)=1.5e0.1s1+2sG_p(s) = \frac{1.5e^{-0.1s}}{1+2s}
