The document discusses open loop transfer functions and stability analysis using Nyquist plots. It begins with an outline of topics including partial fraction expansion, open loop systems, Nyquist plots, and stability criteria. It then provides examples of using partial fraction expansion to decompose transfer functions with real distinct roots, complex conjugate roots, and repeated roots. The document explains open loop and closed loop system nomenclature. It introduces the Nyquist stability criterion, which involves plotting the open loop transfer function on the Nyquist plot and checking if it encircles the critical point at -1.

The plant is that which is to be controlled with transfer function G(s)
The prefilter and the controller define the control laws of the system.
The open loop signal is the signal that results from the actions of the
prefilter, the controller, the plant and the sensor and has the transfer function
F(s)C(s)G(s)H(s)
The closed loop signal is the output of the system and has the transfer function

Simple Nyquist Theorem:
For the loop transfer function, B(iw), if B(iw) has no poles in the right
hand side, expect for simple poles on the imaginary axis, then the
system is stable if there are no encirclements of the critical point -1.

18. Full Nyquist Theorem
Assume that the transfer function B(iw) with P
poles has been plotted as a Nyquist plot. Let N be
the number of clockwise encirclements of -1 by
B(iw) minus the counterclockwise encirclements
of -1 by B(iw)Then the closed loop system has
Z=N+P poles in the right half plane.
