To find the phase margin, we need to determine the phase angle at the frequency where the magnitude of the transfer function is 1.
The transfer function G(s) can be rewritten as:
G(s) = 1/(1 + s)^2
To find the phase angle at the frequency where |G(s)| = 1, we need to solve for s in the equation |G(s)| = 1:
1/(1 + s)^2 = 1
(1 + s)^2 = 1
Taking the square root of both sides:
1 + s = ±1
There are two possible solutions:
1) 1 + s = 1
Solving for s:
s = 0
2) 1 + s = -1
Solving for s:
s = -2
Now, we need to find the phase angle at each of these frequencies.
At s = 0, the phase angle is 0 degrees.
At s = -2, the phase angle can be found by substituting s = -2 into the transfer function:
G(-2) = 1/(1 + (-2))^2
= 1/(-1)^2
= 1
Since the magnitude of the transfer function is 1 at s = -2, the phase angle is -180 degrees.
Therefore, the phase margin is the difference between 180 degrees and the phase angle at the frequency where |G(s)| = 1. In this case, the phase margin is:
Phase Margin = 180 degrees - (-180 degrees)
= 180 degrees + 180 degrees
= 360 degrees
So, the phase margin of the system is 360 degrees.
