PI stabilization of first-order systems with time delay (Q5949068)

Consider the problem of stabilizing a first-order plant. If the characteristic quasipolynomial has the form NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\delta^* (s)=e^{sT_m} d(s)+ e^{s(T_m-T_1)} y_1(s)+e^{s(T_m-T_2)} y_2(s)+\cdots+ e^{ s(T_m-T)}y_m(s),NEWLINE\]NEWLINE where \(d(s)\), \(y_i(s)\), \(i=1,\dots,m\) are polynomials with real coefficients and the following conditions are satisfied:NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEA1. \(\deg[d(s)]=n\), \(\deg[y_i(s)]<n\), \(i=1,\dots, m\), NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEA2. \(0<T_1< T_2<\cdots <T_m\),NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEthen stability conditions are known (Pontryagin), (Bellman and Cooke).NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEHere, an example of a controllable system is investigated where NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\delta^*(s)= (kk_i+kk_ps)+ (1+T_s)se^{Ls}.NEWLINE\]NEWLINE The following conditions of stabilization are obtained.NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINETheorem.
