Comparison of lead and lag compensators

Phase Lead Compensator

Phase Lag Compensator

1.   It improves the transient response

2.   (a) It makes the system dynamic response faster.
(b) No significant reduction in steady state error.

3.   It reduces the rise time.

4.   It increases the bandwidth.

5.   It increases the margin of stability i.e. system becomes more stable.

6.   High frequency noise in the output signal increases or SNR decreases.

7.   It can’t be applied when phase angle of uncompensated system is increasing rapidly near crossover frequency

1.   It improves the steady state response.

2.   (a) It makes the system dynamic response slower.
(b) It reduces the steady state error.

3.   It increases the rise time.

4.   It decreases the bandwidth.

5.   It reduces the stability margin i.e. system becomes less stable.

6.   High frequency noise in the output signal decreases or SNR increases.

7.   It can’t be applied if uncompensated system’s phase angle in low frequency region is not sufficient to provide requisite phase margin.

Proportional (P) Controller

In proportional controller, the actuating signal for the control action in a control system is proportional to the error signal (which is the input to the controller), therefore the system is called proportional control system.Proportional Controller

Integral (I) Controller (Reset Mode)

In integral controller, the actuating signal for the control action in a control system is proportional to the integral (or integration) of the error signal (which is the input to this controller), therefore the system is called integral control system.Reset Mode

Derivative (D) Controller (Rate Mode)

In derivative controller, the actuating signal for the control action in a control system is proportional to the
derivative (or differentiation) of the error signal (which is the input to the controller), therefore the system is called
derivative control system.Rate Mode

Proportional Integral (P-I) Controller

It is composite of proportional and integral controllers Proportional Integral

State variables analysis

State model of Linear systems:
State model
Output matrix

1. Controllable Canonical Form (CCF)

This form of state-space representation has got the name due to the fact that all of the states are feedback to the input.
Consider the linear system defined by,

Controllable Canonical

2. Observable Canonical Form (OCF)

In this form the feedback is from the output to the state variables and thus named as observable canonical or observer canonical form.
Consider the transfer function system,
