1. (10 points) Consider this model of an antenna control system. The output is the azimuth angle of a
dish antenna, which is used to track satellites. The input is the desired angle, while the disturbance is
caused by wind blowing on the antenna.

(b) (5 points) Suppose that the controller was designed as follows , KI = 3, KD = 1 and KP = 1.
Let the reference input be a ramp r(t) = 2tu(t), and let the disturbance be a step w(t) = 0.1u(t).
What is lim e(t)?
t
Before using anything based on the final value theorem, we must check stability. The denominator is
P (s) = s3 + (1 + KD )s2 + KP s + KI
= s3 + 2s2 + s + 3
All coefficients are positive, so build the Routh array,

Since there are two sign changes in the first column, the system is unstable. Thus, the limit
does not exist.

Given two masses m1 and m2 , attached by a spring with spring constant k, which are free
to move on a horizontal surface that has coefficient of friction d, and where m 1 has an external force

we can write two differential equations, one for mass m1 and one for mass m2 , of the form
mass acceleration = friction force + spring force + external force (if any)
(a) (7 points) Starting with two such equations, take their Laplace transforms and find the block
diagram of the system with input U (s) and output Y (s) and make sure signal X(s) exists and is
labelled (hint: it will have a feedback loop).
