In this paper we explore the use of the generalized nyquist criterion to. The nyquist criterion itself determines a limit of stability, sustained oscillations. The reason we use the nyquist stability criterion is that it gives use information about the relative stability of a system and gives us clues as to how to make a system more stable. If we took the left dotted path, then there are zero crossings at 1 and in nitesimally close to 0. If all the poles of gh are in the lhp, then we can just plot the positive j. In such a situation, methods allowing to determine whether all roots have negative real parts and establish the stability of the system without solving the auxiliary equation itself, are of great importance.

Clearly, the closedloop poles are locat ed at s 2 and s 5, and the system is not oscillatory. In particular, there are two quantities, the gain margin and the phase margin, that can be used to quantify the stability of a system. Nyquist plot intersects the real axis in 1 therefore such that.
