What is poles in Nyquist plot?

Nyquist stability criterion states the number of encirclements about the critical point (1+j0) must be equal to the poles of characteristic equation, which is nothing but the poles of the open loop transfer function in the right half of the 's' plane.

What is Nyquist contour and the effect of poles at the origin?

For a single pole at the origin, the Nyquist curve will approach infinity as approaches zero from both the positive and negative direction. The Nyquist curve can then be "closed" by tracing around a small semicircle to the left of the pole (as shown in Figure 9.3a).

How many poles does a Nyquist plot have?

The system has 1 unstable poles. If K>2, then −0.5K<−1, the Nyquist plot encircle −1 counterclockwise once.

What is the gain at the origin of the Nyquist plot?

We can check this by finding the location of the zeros of the characteristic equation: This has roots at s=-4.64, -0.18±2.07 so the system is stable as expected. Since the gain margin is 3.52 dB (=1.5), this tells us that we could increase the gain by up to a factor of 1.5 before the system goes unstable.

What can be the transfer function for given Nyquist plot?

The Nyquist plot of a loop transfer function G(jω) H(jω) of a system encloses the (-1, j0) point. That means the given system is unstable, hence the gain margin is negative. Important Points: For a stable system, gain margin and phase margin are positive.
