Introduces possible definitions and interpretations of bandwidth and illustrates how this can be estimated from Bode gain plots. Also, illustrates links between open-loop bandwidth and the expected bandwidth of the same system when connected with unity negative feedback.

Gives a detailed analysis of the bode diagram of a lead-lag compensator and emphasises key attributes and thus differences with a lead compensator. Also illustrates that a good sketch can be produced using just a few elementary observations at key corner frequencies.
