Abstract
It is shown that the principle of the argument is the basis for the Mikhailov’s stability criterion for linear continuous systems. Mikhailov’s criterion states that a real Hurwitz polynomial of degree n satisfies the monotonic phase increase, that is to say the argument of goes through n quadrants as w runs from zero to infinity. In this paper, the generalized Mikhailov criterion where a real polynomial of degree n with no restriction on the roots location is considered. A method based on the argument is used to determine the number of roots in each half of the s-plane as well as on the imaginary axis if any.
