Problem 9.05PP
Linearizing effect of feedback: We have seen that feedback can reduce the sensitivity of the
input-output transfer function with respect to changes in the plant transfer function, and reduce
the effects of a disturbance acting on the plant. In this problem we explore another beneficial
property of feedback: It can make the input-output response more linear than the open-loop
response of the plant alone. For simplicity, let us ignore all the dynamics of the plant and assume
that the plant is described by the static nonlinearity
y «) =
« 1 .
(a)Suppose we use proportional feedback
u(t) = r(t) + a(r(t)-y(t)),
where a > 0 is the feedback gain. Find an expression for y(t) as a function of r(t) for the closed-
loop system. {This function is called the nonlinear characteristic at the system.) Sketch the
u(tf= r(t) + a(r(t) - y(t)).
where a > 0 is the feedback gain. Find an expression for y(t) as a function of r(t) for the closed-
loop system. (This function is called the nonlinear characteristic ot the system.) Sketch the
nonlinear transfer characteristic for a = 0 (which is really open loop), a = 1, and a = 2 .
(b) Suppose we use integral control:
t
h( 0 = r ( t ) + J ( r { r ) - y ( T ) ) d r .
The closed-loop system is therefore nonlinear and dynamic. Show that if r(t) is a constant, say r,
then lim y ( /) = r . Thus, the integral control makes the steady-state transfer characteristic of
/-►oo'
the closed-loop system exactly linear. Can the closed-loop system be described by a transfer
function from rto y?

Find,y for u ^ 1.
y = r + a { r - y )
y = { l - a ) y
y = ( l - i i ) r
Thus, we get

Thus, we getu = r -I- ,
where r is a constant

In stable condition,y stays bounded. Hence, y y^-
Hence, we get ^ = r + (r - y j)d t oo, if y ^ * r .
The e^»ression infers that y^ = r .

From the equation we get 2y y ^ r .
Hence, on further simplification we obtain the e^sression —^ —̂ ,

Therefore, in steady-state condition.^ = r.
Thus, we get lim = lim r ( t ) .
So, we infer that lim .y (t) = r , since, r is a constant
