ABSTRACT

detail for general use. If the model exhibits the same gain and phase
characteristics as the actual equipment, it is adequate. Gain and phase
characteristics are complex frequency parameters to be discussed later.

INTRODUCTION
In 1968, an IEEE Committee Report' was published in which
several "standardized" representations of excitation systems were
recommended for use in computer programs. The representations
given there are in block diagram format, each major block representing
in quasi-physical fashion the transfer function of a major component
or group of components of the excitation system.
Transfer Functions
A block diagram of a simple feedback control system with
parameters that might correspond to a static excitation system is
shown in Fig. 1. This block diagram is already in a form which is
convenient for deriving an expression for the output Voltage VO(s) as a
function of the input voltage Vi(s) (i.e., a mathematical model) and
this will be done in a following sectionl.

which is the same as Eq. (1) except for the "400" in the numerator.
Next, consider the ideal transformer of Fig. 2c, with input voltage Ve,

which is identical with Eq. (1). The circuit of Fig. 2d, then is
apparently capable of yielding the transfer function of the upper
block of Fig. 1.
There are other circuits which can yield the same transfer
function. Consider the circuit of Fig. 3a. The ratio of output to input

which is exactly what is desired. The circuit of Fig. 4d will also yield
this same transfer function. It should be noted that the reason for
using VO as the input voltage to the circuits of Figs. 4c and 4d and Vf
as the output voltage is because the arrows of Fig. 1 specify this to be
the case for the lower block.
Despite the fact that both output and input voltages of either
block are functions of time, their ratios G(s) and H(s) are expressed as
functions of s rather than of t. For steady-state circuit analysis, s = jw
and when the steady-state voltage ratios are written in the form of
Eqs. (2), (5) or (7), they are generally familiar forms. In general, for
steady-state or transient analysis, s is a complex frequency, usually
-written s = a + jw; for steady-state analysis, a = o, i.e., the real part of
the frequency, is not significant for the solution.

where each gain on the right-hand side is in decibels and Tdb (jw)
stands for the transfer function gain in decibels. The definition of
decibel gain is given by the two left-hand terms of Eq. (16): the gain
in decibels is 20 times the logarithm (to the base 10) of the absolute
value of the output-to-input voltage ratio, where both output and
input voltages are in the frequency domain.

The general form of the equations for plotting the Bode diagram
of transfer functions will be developed next and then applied to the
closed-loop and open-loop transfer functions of Fig. 1 in the following
two sections. Eq. (1 Ic) shows that the general form of a transfer
function of a feedback system consists of a numerator which is a

With the low and high frequency asymptotes and their intersection all known, they can be plotted as shown on the upper curve of
Fig. 5. Thus, a good approximation of the frequency response curve of
the gain of N(ow) has been obtained without plotting points in the
usual sense. One such point can be easily obtained, however, which
permits the actual response curve to be sketched in more accurately.

The assumptions involved here are (a) that some idea of the basic
blocks in the diagram is available, (b) that the system is linear, i.e.,
that none of the signals are so large as to cause any of the elements to
saturate or become non-linear. If the signal is large enough to result in
non-linear operation of the system, then the type of system model
that we have discussed until now can be modified to take account of
such non-linearities. The modifications consist of additional blocks in
the block diagram called "limiters," or of additional feedback loops.
Limiters and feedback loops to take account of saturation or other
non-linearities are shown in the standardized excitation systems of

So far, the poles and zeros, except for those at infinity, that have
been discussed all lie on the a - axis. Poles and zeros can lie anywhere
on the s-plane. Consider for example a function which has a
denominator s2 + 2s + 5. This can be factored into (s + 1 + j2) (s + 1 j2) so that the function will have poles at s = -1 + j2 and s = -1 j2 as
well as zeros all along the circle at infinity. This pair of poles is plotted
on Fig. 10.

A general method of evaluating the inverse transform of a function is to express the function as a sum of partial fractions with
constant coefficients.3 The inverse transform of each of the partial fractions may then be obtained from tables of Laplace transforms.
The complete inverse transform of the function is the sum of the inverse transforms of all of the partial fractions. The procedure described
in the following is essentially the same as presented in chapter 4 of
reference 3.
Equation (29) may be written as
(30)

And the resultant transfer function is dependent almost entirely on
the characteristics of the feedback element and is independent of the
forward elements. This means that the phase shift contributed by the
time delays inherent in the physical equipment comprising the
forward elements has been minimized over a selected frequency range,
which is determined by the gain and time constant of the feedback
element. This is, in fact, the function of the excitation system
stabilizer in an excitation control system.

Phase and gain margin are both measures of the relative stability
of a control system. A feedback control system will be unstable if the
phase shift is greater than 1800 at the frequency at which the gain is
unity, i.e., at the crossover frequency on the Bode plot of the system
open loop characteristic. Phase margin is equal to 1800 minus the
absolute value of the loop phase angle at a frequency where the loop
gain is unity.2 A phase margin of 400 or more is generally considered
good design practice. Similarly gain margin is defined as the reciprocal
of the gain at the frequency at which the phase angle reaches minus
1800.2 A gain margin of 6 db or more is generally considered good
design practice.'0

Rise Time
Bandwidth is related to the cross-over frequency of the openloop frequency response of the system and to the system transient
response (rise time) as shown earlier. Bandwidth is also indicative of
the highest input frequency that can be handled by the system, i.e. it
approximately describes the filtering characteristics of the system.
