Q#1 Control System Design GATE EC 2025 (Set 1) MCQ +2 marks -0.66 marks

Let  be the transfer function of a second-order system. A controller  is connected to the system  in the configuration shown below.

Consider the following statements.

(i) There exists no controller of the form , where  is a positive real number, such that the closed loop system is stable.

(ii) There exists at least one controller of the form , where  and  are positive real numbers, such that the closed loop system is stable.

Which one of the following options is correct?

(i) is TRUE and (ii) is FALSE

(i) is FALSE and (ii) is TRUE

Both (i) and (ii) are FALSE

Both (i) and (ii) are TRUE

Explanation:

Given :

 

 

 

Characteristic equation:

Sign change  (closed Loop system: Unstable)

(ii)

 

Characteristic equation:

Given that  Real no's

All coefficient +ve in characteristic equation, hence closed loop system is stable.

Hence, correct answer is (D) Both (i) and (ii) are True.

Q#2 Control System Design GATE EC 2024 (Set 1) MCQ +2 marks -0.66 marks

A satellite attitude control system, as shown below, has a plant with transfer function  cascaded with a compensator , where K and  are positive real constants.

In order for the closed-loop system to have poles at , the value of  must be ________.

3

Explanation:

 

 

    …(1)

This equation will have 3 roots out of which roots are complex lying at , the third pole will be real.

Assuming that the third pole lies at s = -p

Let  be

 

 

    …(2)

Comparing (1) and (2)
