Rules to help locate the root locus
1. Indicate the finite poles and zeros of the open-loop transfer
function (OLTF) on the s-plane.
2. Number of asymptotes (): =n-m n,m = number poles &zeros;
Question:4 For the system with open-loop function.
r180
3. Angle(s) of Asymptotes () ; r 1, 3, ..
(sum of poles ) (sum of zeros)
Determine if the following points are on the root locus. 4. Center of asymptotes ()
nm
(a) s= - 0.5 5. Breakaway Real-axis and break-in points (If any): ND ND 0 ;
6. Angles of departure and Arrivals of the root locus:
d z p r(1800 ) r 1, 3
(b) s=-1+j 7. Intersection of loci with Imaginary axis can be found by the
Routh Criterion.
