  2. Nyquist stability criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyquist_stability_criterion

    Assessment of the stability of a closed-loop negative feedback system is done by applying the Nyquist stability criterion to the Nyquist plot of the open-loop system (i.e. the same system without its feedback loop). This method is easily applicable even for systems with delays and other non-rational transfer functions, which may appear ...

  3. Root locus analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_locus_analysis

    According to vector mathematics, the angle of the result of the rational polynomial is the sum of all the angles in the numerator minus the sum of all the angles in the denominator. So to test whether a point in the s-plane is on the root locus, only the angles to all the open loop poles and zeros need be considered. This is known as the angle ...

  4. Routh–Hurwitz stability criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Routh–Hurwitz_stability...

    In the control system theory, the Routh–Hurwitz stability criterion is a mathematical test that is a necessary and sufficient condition for the stability of a linear time-invariant (LTI) dynamical system or control system. A stable system is one whose output signal is bounded; the position, velocity or energy do not increase to infinity as ...

  5. Control theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_theory

    A control problem can have several specifications. Stability, of course, is always present. The controller must ensure that the closed-loop system is stable, regardless of the open-loop stability. A poor choice of controller can even worsen the stability of the open-loop system, which must normally be avoided.

  6. Step response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Step_response

    This closed-loop gain is of the same form as the open-loop gain: a one-pole filter. Its step response is of the same form: an exponential decay toward the new equilibrium value. But the time constant of the closed-loop step function is τ / (1 + β A 0), so it is faster than the forward amplifier's response by a factor of 1 + β A 0:

  7. Hardware-in-the-loop simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware-in-the-loop...

    Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation, also known by various acronyms such as HiL, HITL, and HWIL, is a technique that is used in the development and testing of complex real-time embedded systems. HIL simulation provides an effective testing platform by adding the complexity of the process-actuator system, known as a plant , to the test platform.

  8. Stable polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stable_polynomial

    For higher degree polynomials the extra computation involved in this mapping can be avoided by testing the Schur stability by the Schur-Cohn test, the Jury test or the Bistritz test. Necessary condition: a Hurwitz stable polynomial (with real coefficients) has coefficients of the same sign (either all positive or all negative).

  9. Open-loop controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-loop_controller

    In control theory, an open-loop controller, also called a non-feedback controller, is a control loop part of a control system in which the control action ("input" to the system [1]) is independent of the "process output", which is the process variable that is being controlled. [2]
