Introduction
In the preceding chapters we discussed the relationship between the performance and the characteristic roots of feedback system.
The root locus is a powerful tool for designing and analyzing feedback control system, it is a graphical method by determining the locus of roots in the s-plane as one system parameter is changed.
6.1 The root locus concept
Definition: The root locus is the path of the roots of the characteristic equation traced out in the s-plane as a system parameter is varied.
Root locus and system performance • Stability
• Dynamic performance
• Steady-state error

Basic task of root locus
How to determine the closed-loop poles from the known open-loop poles and zeros and gain by root locus equation.

6.2 The Root Locus Procedure
Step 1:Write the characteristic equation as
Step 2: Rewrite preceding equation into the
form of poles and zeros as follows:

6.2 Root locus procedure
Step 3: Locate the poles and zeros with specific symbols, the root locus begins at the open-loop poles and ends at the open-loop zeros as K increases from 0 to infinity.
If open-loop system has n-m zeros at infinity, there will be n-m branches of the root locus approaching the n-m zeros at infinity.
Step 4: The root locus on the real axis lies in
a section of the real axis to the left of an odd
number of real poles and zeros.
Step 5: The number of separate loci is equal
to the number of open-loop poles.
Step 6: The root loci must be continuous and
symmetrical with respect to the horizontal
real axis.
6.2 Root locus procedure
Step 7: The loci proceed to zeros at infinity along asymptotes centered at and with angles :

Step 8: The actual point at which the root locus crosses the imaginary axis is readily evaluated by using Routh criterion.
Step 9: Determine the breakaway point d (usually on the real axis):
