{{Short description|Positions of a closed-loop transfer function's poles in the s-plane}}

{{Unreferenced|date=December 2009}}

'''Closed-loop poles''' are the positions of the poles (or [[eigenvalue]]s) of a [[closed-loop transfer function]] in the [[s-plane]]. The [[open-loop controller|open-loop]] transfer function is equal to the product of all transfer function blocks in the [[forward path]] in the [[block diagram]]. The closed-loop transfer function is obtained by dividing the open-loop transfer function by the sum of one (1) and the product of all transfer function blocks throughout the [[feedback loop]]. The closed-loop transfer function may also be obtained by algebraic or block diagram manipulation. Once the closed-loop transfer function is obtained for the system, the closed-loop poles are obtained by solving the characteristic equation. The characteristic equation is nothing more than setting the denominator of the closed-loop transfer function to zero (0).

In [[control theory]] there are two main methods of analyzing feedback systems: the [[transfer function]] (or frequency ___domain) method and the [[state space (controls)|state space]] method. When the transfer function method is used, attention is focused on the locations in the s-plane where the transfer function is [[Singularity (mathematics)|undefined]] (the ''poles'') or zero (the ''zeroes''; see [[Zeroes and poles]]). Two different transfer functions are of interest to the designer. If the feedback loops in the system are opened (that is prevented from operating) one speaks of the ''[[open-loop transfer function]]'', while if the feedback loops are operating normally one speaks of the ''[[closed-loop transfer function]]''. For more on the relationship between the two, see [[root-locus]].

==Closed-loop poles in control theory==

The response of a linear and[[Linear time-invariant system | linear time-invariant system]] to any input can be derived from its [[impulse response]] and [[step response]]. The eigenvalues of the system determine completely the [[natural response]] ([[unforced response]]). In control theory, the response to any input is a combination of a [[transient response]] and [[steady-state response]]. Therefore, a crucial design parameter is the ___location of the eigenvalues, or closed-loop poles.

In [[root-locus|root-locus design]], the [[Gain (electronics)|gain]] ''K'' is usually parameterized. Each point on the locus satisfies the [[angle condition]] and [[magnitude condition]] and corresponds to a different value of&nbsp;''K''. For [[negative feedback]] systems, the closed-loop poles move along the [[root-locus]] from the [[open-loop pole]]s to the [[open-loop zeroe]]s as the gain is increased. For this reason, the root-locus is often used for design of [[proportional control]], i.e. those for which <math>\textbf{G}_c = K</math>.
