Identifying type of feedback by looking at bode plot

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on identifying feedback types from a given Bode plot of a feedback system. Positive feedback occurs where the phase and magnitude begin to increase, approximately at w = 10^2. Negligible feedback is indicated by a gain of 1, identified at w = 5. Negative feedback is characterized by a magnitude of return difference greater than 0 dB, while positive feedback is indicated by a magnitude less than 0 dB. Understanding these definitions is crucial for accurately interpreting the feedback characteristics from the Bode plot.

Homework Statement


Below is the bode plot of return difference, 1+C(S)P(S) in a feedback system. Identify the frequencies where the feedback is large, negative, positive and negligible.

P(S) = \frac{100}{s^2+2s+1}

C(S) = \frac{220(s+50)}{s+200}

The Attempt at a Solution



Is there a way of identifying the frequencies where the feedback is large, negative, positive and negligible just by looking at the bode plot?

So the positive feedback would be where we start gaining phase & magnitude, so it'd be approximately w = 10^2.

Negligible gives you a gain of 1, so the frequency would be w = 5. Is my reasoning right?

Also what characterizes a negative and large feedback?

For answering the question you should know the definitions for negative and positive feedback:
* Region of negative feedback: Magnitude of return difference >0 dB (Transfer function gain decreases due to feedback)
* Region of positive feedback: Magnitude of return difference < 0 dB (Transfer function gain increases due to feedback).
