Lecturer:
For questions that involve calculations, you may either type or handwrite the solutions in a reasonably
neat and coherent way. Marks will not be given for unreadable work. You may also adjust the size of the
answer box to fit in all your solutions.
a) What is the (closed-loop) transfer function between Y s and Rs (in terms of K )? Denote this as
T2 s .
b) Let K 2 , calculate the steady-state gain of T2 s .
c) Let Rs be a unit step input. Calculate the steady-state error for the closed-loop response when
K 2.
d) The proportional control can be used to increase the speed of a first order system. Find the values
of K such that the time constant of the closed-loop system is less than 0.05s (show by calculation).
e) Let Cs be a proportional controller with a constant gain K 2 , and T2 s as the closed-loop
transfer function. Let yT 2 be its output and plot the step responses of T2 s and G2 s in the same
figure.

g) From the previous step, verify your result in part (d) above. (i.e. the values of K such that the time
constant of the closed-loop system is at most 0.05s).
h) Plot (in the same figure) the step responses of the closed-loop system when K 0.5,2,5,10 and 20.
In some cases, only the combination of P and I or P and D terms are useful to achieve the desired
performance specifications. The values of , and can be theoretically calculated to compensate
the plant in order to achieve the desired performance of the system.
TASKS
a) Let in 2 () in Figure 3 be the same light bulb model from Part A above. Starting with the
combination of P and I terms, i.e. let the controller be represented. Depending on your skills, begin
with either PI or PD controller, and obtain the closed loop transfer function in terms of and (for
PI control), or and (for PD control).
b) Using the approximation
12 4.6
= and =
and assuming that there is no zero in the closed-loop transfer function, calculate the range of and
(for PI control), or and (for PD control) that can meet the desired specications above (i.e. (i)-
(iii)).
c) Within the range in (b), choose appropriate values of and (for PI control), or and (for PD
control), and plot the step response using MATLAB/Simulink (copy and paste the codes and/or figures
below), and show the values of , and . (Note: If you are using MATLAB only, copy and paste
the codes and figures into the box below, but if you are using Simulink and MATLAB, copy and paste
the Simulink model and figures into the box below)
