600 Chapter 8 / PID Controllers and Modified PID ControllersSecond, note thatNotice that the characteristic equation for Y(s)/D(s)and the one for Y(s)/R(s)are identical.
We may be tempted to choose a zero of at s=–1to cancel a pole at s=–1of the
plant However, the canceled pole s=–1becomes a closed-loop pole of the entire system,
as seen below. If we define as a PID controller such that(8–7)
thenThe closed-loop pole at s=–1is a slow-response pole, and if this closed-loop pole is included in
the system, the settling time will not be less than 1 sec. Therefore, we should not choose as
given by Equation (8–7).
The design of controllers and consists of two steps.Design Step 1: We design to satisfy the requirements on the response to the step-
disturbance input D(s).In this design stage, we assume that the reference input is zero.
Suppose that we assume that is a PID controller of the formThen the closed-loop transfer function Y(s)/D(s)becomesNote that the presence of “s” in the numerator of Y(s)/D(s)assures that the steady-state response
to the step disturbance input is zero.
Let us assume that the desired dominant closed-loop poles are complex conjugates and are
