We know that the unit step signal has the value of one for all
positive values of t including zero. So, it is bounded input.
Therefore, the first order control system is stable since both the
input and the output are bounded.

• The open loop control system is marginally stable if any
two poles of the open loop transfer function is present on
the imaginary axis.
• Similarly, the closed loop control system is marginally
stable if any two poles of the closed loop transfer function
is present on the imaginary axis.

Routh-Hurwitz Stability Criterion

Concept of

Routh stability

Applications
of Routh • Routh-Hurwitz stability criterion is having one necessary
stability
criterion only condition and one sufficient condition for stability.
for linear
feedback • If any control system doesnt satisfy the necessary
control
systems condition, then we can say that the control system is
unstable. But, if the control system satisfies the necessary
condition, then it may or may not be stable.
• So, the sufficient condition is helpful for knowing whether
the control system is stable or not.

The sufficient condition is that all the elements of the first

means that all the elements of the first column of the Routh
array should be either positive or negative.

stability
criterion only unstable. So, we have to find the roots of the
for linear
feedback characteristic equation to know whether the control
control
systems system is stable or unstable. But, it is difficult to find the
roots of the characteristic equation as order increases.
• So, to overcome this problem there we have the Routh
array method. In this method, there is no need to calculate
the roots of the characteristic equation. First formulate
the Routh table and find the number of the sign changes
in the first column of the Routh table. The number of sign
changes in the first column of the Routh table gives the
number of roots of characteristic equation that exist in the
right half of the s plane and the control system is unstable.
