HW9 P1 - Voltage Loop Gain

For HW9 P1a, I was using figure 12.25a of the text as a guide, and as such I was able to get an equation for Gvc based on eqn 12.73. However, the voltage loop gain using this model would incorporate Fv as a multiplier (Tv = Gc(s) * Fv * Gvd(s)), and since Fv = 0 in model 4, I am inclined to think maybe I need to change the model in 12.25a to compensate for model 4 in some way. Could anyone give me a hint here?

  1. Hi Audrey,

    I would use fig. 12.26 as a guide and eqn. 12.88 gives an expression for Gvc in terms of Gvd and Gid. Gvd is obtained from eqn. 12.81 and Gid from eqn. 12.84. Substitute Fv=0 and proceed.

  2. Thanks for the response Nitish. I tried using these other diagrams and equations, and I got the same result with the same question. In diagram 12.26, Fv is in the only path fed by v_hat. If Fv=0, wouldn't that imply the voltage loop gain is also zero, or are there other feedback paths not being represented in the diagram?

  3. I'm at the same point. In figure 12.26 Fv is in the voltage loop so it appears that Tv=0. Perhaps the approach is to move forward utilizing the equations of table 12.3 and set Fv=0. But then how do you account or the compensator in those equations?

  4. Fv=0. So you can ignore the Fv loop in fig 12.26. Then the loop can be closed as:
    ic-->v-->compensator-->vc-->ic
