Construction Rules for Root Locus
1. Starting points (K=0): The root loci start at the
open-loop poles
2. Termination points (K = ∞): The root loci
terminate at the open-loop zeros when they
exist, otherwise at ∞.

Example 1 : Draw the root locus for the
characteristic equation:
Solution:
The general equation of G(z) based on zeros and
poles is
GH(z)= 0.368K(z+0.717)/(z-1)(z-0.368)
NOW, the open loop poles:
(z-1)(z-0.368) z= 1 and 0.398.
Then , the open loop zero :
Solution :
The G(z)

The controller is an integral controller: K/s =k(z/z-1)
Now, G(z) =
8
Now, 1+KGH(z)=0 KGH(z) = -1
K = -1/G(z)
