10.8 Evans Root Locus Construction Rule #6: Angles of Departures/Arrivals at Complex Poles/Zeros

This Rule deals with angles of departure (arrival) from/to complex poles (zeros).

 

Rule 6: If G(s) has a pole p of multiplicity r, then r branches of the root locus depart from p. The angle of departure of these root loci from p are described by this equation:

θdep= [G(s)(sp)r]s=p+(2k+1)180r  k=0,1,2,...,r1                                                                                                                                                                                 Equation 10-13

Similarly, if G(s) has a zero z of multiplicity r, then r branches of the root locus arrive at z. The angle of arrival of these root loci to z are described by this equation:

θarr=[G(s)(sz)r]s=z+(2k+1)180rk=0,1,2,...,r1

Equation 10-14

 

See examples in the next section for illustration of this rule.
