Yes, I think this is right.


but how can you tell there are two RHP poles in open loop gain from his bode plot?

Thanks,

Assume that you have an open loop gain function T(s)=A/[(s-p1)*(s-p2)] with two RHP poles at p1=2π*103 1/s and p2=2π*106 1/s. Do a Bode plot of this function for s=j2πf. What do you get?

you are right. there are 2 poles in RHP, other thatn that, there is a LHP zero, which is close to the 2nd pole, and a RHP zero after unitiy gain bandwidth.
