    Question

    A Nyquist plot of the system does not encircle the point -1+j0, and there are no poles of the openloop transfer function in the right half of the s-plane. What can be concluded about the stability of the system?

    A.

    The system is stable

    B.

    The system is unstable

    C.

    The system is first stable and becomes unstable after 1 time constant is reached

    D.

    The system is first unstable and becomes stable after 1 time constant is reached

    Correct option is A

    Using the Nyquist stability criterion:Z=P+Nwhere P= number of open-loop poles in the Right Half Plane (RHP) N= number of encirclements of the point 1+j0 Z= number of closed-loop poles in the RHPGiven in the question: No encirclement of 1+j0=>N=0 No open-loop poles in the RHP =>P=0Therefore:Z=0+0=0This means there are no closed-loop poles in the RHP, so the closed-loop system is stable.\text{Using the Nyquist stability criterion:} \\[6pt]Z = P + N \\[8pt]\text{where} \\[4pt]\bullet \ P = \text{ number of open-loop poles in the Right Half Plane (RHP)} \\[2pt]\bullet \ N = \text{ number of encirclements of the point } -1 + j0 \\[2pt]\bullet \ Z = \text{ number of closed-loop poles in the RHP} \\[8pt]\text{Given in the question:} \\[6pt]\bullet \ \text{No encirclement of } -1 + j0 \Rightarrow N = 0 \\[2pt]\bullet \ \text{No open-loop poles in the RHP } \Rightarrow P = 0 \\[8pt]\text{Therefore:} \\[6pt]Z = 0 + 0 = 0 \\[8pt]\text{This means there are no closed-loop poles in the RHP, so the closed-loop system is stable.}​​
