1. Frequency Response Basics
• Frequency Response : Response of a system to a sinusoidal input, described
b y the tr ansfer functionG(s) evaluated ats =j? :
G(j?) =|G(j?)|e
j?G(j?)
• Magnitude : |G(j?)| , expressed in absolute value or decibels (dB):
|G(j?)|
dB
= 20 log

|G(j?)|
• Phase :?G(j?) , measured in degrees.
2. Polar Plot
• Definition : Plot of G(j?) in the complex plane with magnitude |G(j?)| and
phase?G(j?) as? varies from 0 to8 .
• K ey Points :
– At? = 0 : Starting point isG(j0) = lim
??0
G(j?) .
– At??8 : Ending point isG(j8) = lim

G(j?) .
• Type of S ystem : Determined b y the number of poles ats = 0 inG(s)H(s) .
• Low Frequency Behavior (TypeN system):
