What is Frequency Response?
Definition:
By frequency response, we meant the response of a system subject to a
sinusoidal input
sin (1)
The system response also experience a sinusoid behaviour
sin (2)
We are interested in amplitude ratio (or gain)
(or sometime, 20 log dB). (3)
and phase shift,

A More General Case
The above example shows that the gain and phase shift of a system with
transfer function is the magnitude and argument of with replaced by .
Is this generally true for all transfer function?
To view this let us look into a more general case.
Consider a system with transfer function

With the sinusoid input sin , the output becomes


(17)
where

the system is stable (i.e. 0, ), then 0 as .

Graphical Representation of Frequency Response

Our interest is in the Gain and


phase with varying frequency, a
good way to represent these data
is via the graphical means.
There are basically two graphical
representations.

Bode Plot Representation:


Consists of 2 subplot of
Gain versus frequency
Phase versus frequency
Gain is represented in decibel
(dB),
20 log 20 log (36)
The frequency is usually in
logarithmic scale.

Polar or Nyquist Plot: Nichols Plot (named after Nathaniel B. Nichols):


We adopt the polar representation of A plot of phase (horizontal axis)
complex values. i.e. against gain (vertical axis) in dB.

That is, gain as magnitude and
phase as angle

Extraction of TF from Bode Diagram
We can make use of these asymptotes approximations to extract the transfer
function of a system from its Bode Plot.
Procedure:
1. Mark out the asymptote lines of slopes 20 / (or 6 / ) for
0,1,2, .
2. Identify the corner frequencies of each cross-over point of two adjacent
asymptotes.
3. The transfer function of the system can be constructed in the form of


i. Identify , check the slope( 20 ) and gain ( ) at very low
frequency:
20 log 20 log
ii. Move along the plot with increasing frequency (move to the right), check
for the changes in slope.
For a change of 20 / : add the factor 1
