AP9.2 Anesthesia is used in surgery to induce unconsciousness.
One problem with drug-induced unconsciousness is differences in patient responsiveness.
Furthermore, the patient response changes during an operation. A model of drug-induced anesthesia control is shown in Figure AP9.2. The proxy for unconsciousness is the arterial blood pressure.

(a) Obtain the Bode plot and determine the gain margin and the phase margin when T = 0.05 s.
(b) Repeat part
(a) when T = 0.1 s. Describe the effect of the 100% increase in the time delay T.
(c) Using the phase margin, predict the percent overshoot for a step input for parts
(a) and (b).
