1. Introduction to Root Locus. Root locus, is a graphical representation of the close loop
poles as the system parameter is varied, is a powerful method
of analysis and design for stability and transient response (Evan, 1948;1950),
Able to provide solution for system of order higher than two.
The root locus can be used to describe qualitatively the
performance of a system as various parameters are change.
For example gain versus percentage overshoot, settling time
and peak time.
The root locus also provides a graphic representation of
system’s stability.

2. Root Locus Concept. Close-loop feedback control system,
The system transient response and stability depends upon
the poles of T(s).
The root locus will be used to give us a clear picture of poles
of T(s) as K varies.
Figure 4.1: (A) A Close Loop System.
(b) Equivalent Transfer Function.
Root locus are used to analyze and design the effect of loop gain
upon the system’s transient response and stability.
By taking the CameraMan system as an example, the video camera
system are designed to automatically follow the subject.
The tracking system consists of a dual sensor and a transmitter,
where one component is mounted on the camera, and the other worn
by the subject.
An imbalance between the outputs of the two sensors receiving
energy from the transmitted causes the system to rotate the camera
to balance out the difference and seek the source of energy.
3. Defining Root Locus.
DEFINING ROOT LOCUS
(a) CameraMan® Presenter
Camera System
automatically follows a
subject who wears infrared
sensors on their front and
back tracking commands
and audio are relayed to
CameraMan via a radio
frequency link from a unit
worn by the subject.
(b) Block diagram
(c) Closed-loop transfer
function
DEFINING ROOT LOCUS
Pole location as a function of gain for the CameraMan
system.
The close loop poles (clp) of the system change location as the
gain, K, is varied.
9
~To analyze and design the effect of loop gain upon the system
transient response and stability.It is observed:
At K = 0, poles exists at -10 and 0.
As K increases, both poles move towards each
other and meet at -5.
The poles break away into the complex plane
as K increases further.
One pole moves upward while the other
downwards.
The individual closed-loop poles plotted are removed and replaced
with solid lines.
Thus, root locus is a representation of the paths of the closed-loop
poles as the gain is varied.

4. Properties of Root Locus. We can made a rapid sketch of the root locus of a higher-order
systems without having to factor the denominator of the close
loop transfer function.

6. Sketching the Root Locus. The following five rules allow us to sketch the root locus using
minimal calculation.
The sketch gives an insight into the behaviour of a control system.
1.) Number of Branches.
-The number of branches of the root locus equals the number of
closed-loop poles.
2.) Symmetry.
- The root locus is symmetrical about the real axis.
21
3.) Real Axis Segment.
- On the real axis, for K > 0, the “root locus exists on the left” of
an odd numbered real roots (poles/zeros).

general open-loop system with
test points, Pj, on the real axis

the root locus for the system of
Figure 8.6
22
4.) Starting and End Point.
The root locus begins at the finite and infinite poles at
G(s)H(s) and ends at the finite zeros of G(s)H(s).
- the root locus begin at the poles at -1 and -2 and ends at zeros at -
3 and -4.
- the poles start out at -1 and -2 and move through the real axis
space between the two poles.

locus for the system.
5.) BEHAVIOUR AT INFINITY
(ASYMPTOTES). Thus, the root locus approaches straight lines as asymptotes as
the locus approaches infinity.
The equation of the asymptotes are given by the real-axis
intercept, σa, and angle, θa, as follows:
The angle is given in radians with respect to the positive
extension of the real-axis.

7. Refining the Sketch. This section enable us to determine the;
(1.) Points on the real axis where the root locus enters or leaves
the complex plane.
(2.) Real axis breakaway and break in points.
(3.) The jw axis crossing.
i. BREAKAWAY AND BREAK-IN POINTS.
Numerous root loci
appears to break
away from the real
axis as the system
poles move from
the real axis to the
complex planes.
At other times the
loci appear to
return to the real
axis as a pair of
complex poles
becomes real.
26
The point where the locus leaves the real axis , -1 is called the
breakaway point.
The point where the locus returns to the real axis , -2 is called the
break-in point.
Breakaway point is between -1 and -2.
Break-in point is between +3 and +5.
Cont’d…
Root Locus Breakaway and Break-in points.
CONT’D… Two methods to find breakaway and break-in points.
i. Differential calculus:
For points along the real-axis segments, s = σ.
ii. Transition method:
Breakaway and break-in points satisfy the following relationship
where zi and pi are the negative of the zero and pole values, of G(s)H(s).

The jw axis crossing is the point on the root locus that separates
the stable operation of the system from the unstable operation.
The value of w at the axis crossing yields the frequency of
oscillation.
The gain at the jw-axis crossing yields the maximum positive gain for system stability.
