A unity negative feedback system has the loop transfer function L(s) = Ge{s)G(s) = A- + 10 s 2 (s + 15)' Using Isim, obtain the response of the closed-loop system to a unit ramp input, R(s) = 1/52 . Consider the time interval 0 s t < 50. What is the steady-state error?

A working knowledge of the relationship between the pole locations of the second-order system shown in Figure CP5.3 and the transient response is important in control design. With that in mind, consider the following four cases: 1. (on = 2, = 0, 2. a,, = 2, I = 0.1, 3. ns + a>;, Y(s) FIGURE CP5.3 A simple second-order system. Using the impulse and subplot functions, create a plot containing four subplots, with each subplot depicting the impulse response of one of the four cases listed. Compare the plot with Figure 5.17 in Section 5.5, and discuss the results.

Consider the control system shown in Figure CP5.4. (a) Show analytically that the expected percent overshoot of the closed-loop system response to a unit step input is about 50%. (b) Develop an m-file to plot the unit step response of the closed-loop system and estimate the percent overshoot from the plot. Compare the result with part (a).

Consider the feedback system in Figure CP5.5. Develop an m-file to design a controller and prefilter Gc(s) = K s + z s + p and Gp(s) = Kr S + T such that the ITAE performance criterion is minimized. For (on = 0.45 and = 0.59, plot the unit step response and determine the percent overshoot and settling time.

The loop transfer function of a unity negative feedback system is 25 L(s) = Gc(s)G(s) = s(s + 5)' Develop an m-file to plot the unit step response and determine the values of peak overshoot Mp, time to peak Tp, and settling time Ts (with a 2% criterion).

An autopilot designed to hold an aircraft in straight and level flight is shown in Figure CP5.7. (a) Suppose the controller is a constant gain controller given by Gc(s) = 2. Using the Isim function, compute and plot the ramp response for 8(f(t) = at, where a = 0.5/s. Determine the attitude error after 10 seconds. (b) If we increase the complexity of the controller, we can reduce the steady-state tracking error. With this objective in mind, suppose we replace the constant gain controller with the more sophisticated controller K 1 Gc(s) = Ky + = 2 + -. This type of controller is known as a proportional plus integral (PI) controller. Repeat the simulation of part (a) with the PI controller, and compare the steadystate tracking errors of the constant gain controller versus the PI controller.

The block diagram of a rate loop for a missile autopilot is shown in Figure CP5.8. Using the analytic formulas for second-order systems, predict Mp Tp, and Ts for the closed-loop system due to a unit step input. Compare the predicted results with the actual unit step response obtained with the step function. Explain any differences.

Develop an m-file that can be used to analyze the closed-loop system in Figure CP5.9. Drive the system with a step input and display the output on a graph. What is the settling time and the percent overshoot?

Develop an m-file to simulate the response of the system in Figure CP5.10 to a ramp input R(s) - l/s2 . What is the steady-state error? Display the output on an x-y graph.

Consider the closed-loop system in Figure CP5.11. Develop an m-file to accomplish the following tasks: (a) Determine the closed-loop transfer function T(s) = Y(s)/R(s), (b) Plot the closed-loop system response to an impulse input R(s) = 1, a unit step input R(s) = l/s, and a unit ramp input R(s) = l/s2 . Use the subplot function to display the three system responses.
