Linear System Stability

Transfer Function

• Consider a linear system

𝑥 = 𝐴𝑥 + 𝐵𝑢

𝑦 = 𝐶𝑥 + 𝐷𝑢

• Transfer function

𝐻 𝑠 = 𝐶 𝑠𝐼 − 𝐴 −1𝐵 + 𝐷 =𝐶 𝐸1𝑠

𝑛−1+𝐸2𝑠𝑛−2+⋯+𝐸𝑘 𝐵

𝑠𝑛+𝑎1𝑠𝑛−1+⋯+𝑎𝑛−1𝑠+𝑎𝑛

+ 𝐷

Let 𝑠𝐼 − 𝐴 = 𝑠𝑛 + 𝑎1𝑠𝑛−1 +⋯+ 𝑎𝑛 = 𝑠 − 𝑠𝑖

𝜈𝑖 … 𝑠 − 𝑠𝑘𝜈𝑘

Then, using partial fractions

𝐻 𝑠 = 𝐻1 𝑠 + 𝐻2 𝑠 + ⋯+ 𝐻𝑘 𝑠 + D

where 𝐻𝑖 𝑠 =𝑅1𝑖

𝑠−𝑆𝑖+

𝑅𝑖2

𝑠−𝑆𝑖2 +⋯+

𝑅𝜈𝑖𝑖

𝑠−𝑆𝑖𝜈𝑖

Asymptotic Stability

• Impulse response

𝐻 𝑡 = 𝐻1 𝑡 + 𝐻2 𝑡 + ⋯+ 𝐻𝑘 𝑡 + 𝐷𝛿(𝑡)

where 𝐻𝑖 𝑡 = 𝑅1𝑖 + 𝑅2𝑖𝑡 + ⋯+𝑅𝜈𝑖𝑡

𝜈𝑖−1

𝜈𝑖−1 !𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑡

Then 𝐶𝑒𝐴𝑡𝐵 = 𝑅1𝑖 + 𝑅2𝑖𝑡 + ⋯+𝑅𝜈𝑖𝑡

𝜈𝑖−1

𝜈𝑖−1 !𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑘

𝑖=1

Thus,

𝑅𝑒 𝑠𝑖 < 0 for all 𝑖 → asymptotically stable

𝑅𝑒 𝑠𝑖 > 0 for some 𝑖 → unstable

𝑅𝑒 𝑠𝑖 = 0 for some 𝑖

– 𝑠𝑖 is a simple root → stable but not asymptotically stable

– 𝑠𝑖 is a repeated root → unstable

Asymptotic Stability

• Consider unforced system 𝑥 = 𝐴𝑥

Then, for any matrix 𝐴

𝐴 = 𝑇−1𝐽𝑇, 𝑒𝐴𝑡 = 𝑇−1𝑒𝐽𝑡𝑇

where matrix 𝐽 is block diagonal, and for each Jordan block

𝑥 = 𝐽𝜆𝑥, 𝐽𝜆 = 𝜆𝐼 + 𝑁

𝑒𝐽𝜆𝑡 = 𝑒𝜆𝑡𝐼 𝑒𝑁𝑡 = 𝑒𝜆𝑡

1 𝑡 … 𝑡𝑘−1

𝑘−1 !

1 … 𝑡𝑘−2

𝑘−2 !

… …… 1

Thus, 𝑒𝐽𝜆𝑡 includes terms of the form 𝑡𝑖𝑒𝜆𝑡, 𝑖 = 0, … , 𝑘 − 1

If 𝑅𝑒 𝜆𝑖 < 0, then lim𝑡→∞

𝑡𝑖𝑒𝜆𝑡 = 0

BIBO Stability

• Bounded Input Bounded Output Stability

𝑦 𝑡 = ℎ 𝑡 − 𝜏 𝑢 𝜏 𝑑𝜏𝑡

0

𝑦 𝑡 ≤ ℎ 𝑡 − 𝜏 𝑢 𝜏 𝑑𝜏𝑡

0

If 𝑢(𝑡) < 𝑐, then 𝑦 𝑡 ≤ 𝑐 ℎ 𝑡 − 𝜏 𝑑𝜏𝑡

0

• A system is BIBO stable if and only if

ℎ 𝜏 𝑑𝜏∞

0< 𝑀

• Asymptotic stability → BIBO stability

Lyapunov Stability

• The unforced system 𝑥 = 𝐴𝑥 is asymptotically stable if for a positive

definite matrix 𝑄 the Lyapunov equation 𝑃𝐴 + 𝐴𝑇𝑃 = −𝑄 has a

unique positive definite solution

• Proof:

Consider a Lyapunov function: 𝑉 𝑥 = 𝑥𝑇𝑃𝑥

Then 𝑉 𝑥 = −𝑥𝑇𝑄𝑥

𝑉 𝑡 ≤ −𝛼𝑉(𝑡) or 𝑉 𝑡 ≤ −𝛼𝑉(0)

where 𝛼 =𝜆𝑚𝑖𝑛 𝑄 𝑥𝑇𝑥

𝜆𝑚𝑎𝑥 𝑃 𝑥𝑇𝑥

Alternatively, assume that eigenvalues of A have negative real parts

Then 𝑃 = 𝑒𝐴𝑇𝑡𝑄𝑒𝐴𝑡𝑑𝑡

∞

0 is the unique positive definite solution

Hurwitz Stability

• Let 𝐻 𝑠 =𝑁 𝑠

𝐷 𝑠

where 𝐷(𝑠) = 𝑠𝑛 + 𝑎1𝑠𝑛−1 +⋯+ 𝑎𝑛−1𝑠 + 𝑎𝑛

• Let 𝐻 =

𝑎1 𝑎3 … …

1 𝑎2 … …

𝑎1 𝑎3 …

1 𝑎2 …

be the 𝑛 × 𝑛 Hurwitz matrix

• Then zeros of 𝐷 𝑠 are confined to LHP if and only if all leading

minors of 𝐻 are strictly positive:

𝐷1 = 𝑎1, 𝐷2 =𝑎1 𝑎31 𝑎2

, … , 𝐷𝑛 = 𝐻 > 0

System Poles and Zeros

• For a SISO system

𝐻 𝑠 =𝑏0𝑠

𝑛+𝑏1𝑠𝑛−1+⋯+𝑏𝑛

𝑠𝑛+𝑎1𝑠𝑛−1+⋯+𝑎𝑛−1𝑠+𝑎𝑛

=𝑁 𝑠

𝐷 𝑠

– System zeros: zeros of 𝑁 𝑠

– System poles: zeros of 𝐷(𝑠)

• For a square MIMO system

𝐻 𝑠 =𝐸1𝑠

𝑛−1+𝐸2𝑠𝑛−2+⋯+𝐸𝑘

𝑠𝑛+𝑎1𝑠𝑛−1+⋯+𝑎𝑛−1𝑠+𝑎𝑛

+ 𝐷

– System zeros: zeros of 𝐻 𝑠

– System poles: zeros of 𝐻−1 𝑠

−0.4932,−1.645]

Then,

𝑠 = −1.705, 0.724, −0.0394 ± 𝑗0.2

Dynamic Response: Stability Margins

• Define the return difference

– For SISO systems, 𝑇 𝑗𝜔 = 1 + 𝐺(𝑗𝜔)

– For MIMO systems, 𝑇 𝑗𝜔 = 𝐼 + 𝐺(𝑗𝜔)

• SISO Stability Margins

– Gain margin: 𝛾 = 𝑇 𝑗𝜔2 , 𝜃𝐺 𝜔2 = 180°

– Phase margin: 𝜙 = 2 sin−1𝑇 𝑗𝜔1

2, 𝐺 𝑗𝜔1 = 1

• MIMO Stability margins:

Let 𝜎 𝑇(𝑗𝜔) ≥ 𝛼, then

– 𝐺𝑀 =1

1±𝛼

– 𝑃𝑀 = ±2 sin−1𝛼

Note, these resulting stability margins are extremely conservative

Dynamic Response: Rise Time

• Define system centroidal rise time as:

𝑡 = 𝑡ℎ(𝑡)𝑑𝑡∞0

ℎ(𝑡)𝑑𝑡∞0

= −𝐻′ 0

𝐻 0

Let 𝐻 𝑠 = 𝐶Φ(𝑠)𝐵 where Φ 𝑠 = 𝑠𝐼 − 𝐴 −1

Then 𝐻 0 = −𝐶𝐴−1𝐵, 𝐻′ 0 = −𝐶𝐴−2𝐵, 𝑡 =𝐶𝐴−2𝐵

𝐶𝐴−1𝐵

Alternatively, 𝑡 =𝐴−1
