What is the Steady State Tracking Error in Control Systems?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on the calculation of steady state tracking error in control systems, specifically using the transfer functions G(s) = (-1)/(100(s^2-10.791)) and D(s) = K(s+5)/(s+10). The participant encountered a discrepancy in the value of K, obtaining 2156 instead of the expected 3300. The importance of using natural units and converting degrees to radians for accurate calculations is emphasized.

PREREQUISITES

I am trying to understand steady state tracking error. I was looking over one of the example problems in my textbook and this is what it said:

1z4wm50.png


G(s) = (-1)/(100(s^2-10.791))
D(s) = K(s+5)/(s+10)
Td(s) = 1/s as it states above

I don't understand how they got the value 3300... I got 2156 when solving for K

Always use natural units; Convert 0.1° to radians.
 
thank you! i thought the degree sign was a 0 this whole time -___-
