Abstract: A controller designed for a nominal process model generally works fine for the nominal plant model, but may fail even by a slight change in it. Robust control deals with system analysis and control design for such imperfectly known process models. Robust control has been a recent addition to the field of control engineering that primarily deals with obtaining system robustness in the presence of uncertainties. A lot of research has been done and many approaches are available for robust design of the plants. In this paper, a graphical technique introduced in [1] to find all proportional integral derivative (PID) controllers that satisfy the robust stability constraint of a given single input-single-output (SISO) linear time-invariant (LTI) system with time delay[1], is followed and effects of change of time-delay in the nominal plant model is discussed.
