Title: Stability of -60dB/dec roll off system. Post by yuvan on Aug 8th, 2013, 6:07pm Hi , Generally for PLL system the Roll off goes as -40dB or -60dB /dec from DC but when it crosses Wugb it does it with-20dB/dec for it to be stable using Barkhausen Criteria. So, generally the system is perfectly stable, but in time domain if I give a very low frequency sine wave with frequency falling under the -60dB/dec roll off analysis shows that it comes back with a magnified value with a phase shift. So, the system should eventually blow up. When analysed using the Nyquist or root locus we can conclude that the system to be conditionally stable, but in time domain the analysis shows the system will be unstable. Please help me in analyzing the system properly. |
Title: Re: Stability of -60dB/dec roll off system. Post by nrk1 on Aug 9th, 2013, 7:28pm The time domain analysis mentioned is incorrect. That kind of description implicitly assumes a delay in the system. The closed loop gain is ~ L/(1+L) and if L is large and negative (not equal to -1), you'll simply get a negative closed loop gain. There are many references to this on the web(links from Kent Lundberg's page at http://web.mit.edu/klund/www/; lectures at http://nptel.iitm.ac.in/courses/117106030/ etc.) |

Title: Re: Stability of -60dB/dec roll off system. Post by yuvan on Aug 9th, 2013, 10:19pm Hi nkr1, Thanks for your reply. I actually posted this thread when I was going through the lecture you have pointed out. But I don't understand when you say the "description assumes a implicit delay in the system". I understand somehow the time domain analysis is buggy, but it would be great if you could explain this. |
Title: Re: Stability of -60dB/dec roll off system. Post by raja.cedt on Aug 9th, 2013, 11:42pm Dear Yuvan, When you have a feedback system with let's say -180 phase at low frequency, you would think that feedback signal reached summing node and it will add in phase with the input signal and again it will be amplified by the amp an so on, so while explaining we explain in serial manner but every thing happen in parallel in reality.Bottom line is we have introduced some "Verbal delay" in the system. But please note that time domain has no bug. Why don't you take a system like K*(1+S^2/(S^3) , use RH criterion to find it's stability condition. Thanks, raj. |
Title: Re: Stability of -60dB/dec roll off system. Post by yuvan on Aug 9th, 2013, 11:57pm Hi Raja, Now I understand, can we say like this: when we excite the system with some pulse then eventually the excitation frequency dies down, so even if the feedback comes back with some high magnitude with a phase shift we will not have any issues. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Actually I meant the time domain which I did was buggy & not the original time domain analysis. |
Title: Re: Stability of -60dB/dec roll off system. Post by raja.cedt on Aug 10th, 2013, 12:19am Hello, You are wrong, In the attached fig With some finite vo, we say we will have some vfb and then it will add in phase with vin and sum of both will get amplified and so on...But till Vfb comes vin will not w8, this is what i mean by parallel. Actually this kind of stuff little bit difficult to explain, so please spend some time to think. may be some experts can explain better... Enjoy!!!! |
Title: Re: Stability of -60dB/dec roll off system. Post by yuvan on Aug 10th, 2013, 12:31am Hi Raja, I guess I also meant the same. But thanks a lot for explaining. |
Title: Re: Stability of -60dB/dec roll off system. Post by yuvan on Aug 10th, 2013, 8:59am Hi Raja, I worked out some examples, but I'm not quite sure on how to apply the same of unity gain. And having said that we can convince our self using Nyquist or root locus frequency domain methods. |
Title: Re: Stability of -60dB/dec roll off system. Post by raja.cedt on Aug 10th, 2013, 9:18am hello, tell me which transfer function you have tried...First learn nyquist or RH criterion and then apply the same to chosen transfer function. You can read some more about this kind high low frequency phase systems in loop, please search motor boating in olden music instruments. Thanks, Raj. |

...comes back with a phase shift...??? What does this mean? Don`t you expect any amplification or phase shift at such a low frequency? |
