Nov 24, 2014 at 7:55 comment added LvW Dave,you have asked me "why" and I gave you an answer (I agree without too much relevance to the original question, but it was YOUR question). I repeat (just in the interests of accuracy) that a feedback circuit that fulfills Barkhausen does NOT necessarily oscillate.
Nov 23, 2014 at 18:32 comment added Dave Tweed @LvW: So, you're splitting a hair that has no relevance to the original question. When we're talking about control system stability, it's a given that we're talking about its response to disturbances. If the system meets the Barkhousen condition, it will oscillate in response to any disturbance.
Nov 23, 2014 at 18:26 comment added LvW Dave, that´s hard to answer because - up to now - there is no oscillation condition that is sufficient (as far as I know). The classical Barkhausen condition is a necessary one only.
Nov 23, 2014 at 16:02 comment added Dave Tweed @LvW: Why is it not sufficient? What else is required?
Nov 23, 2014 at 15:48 comment added LvW .... will oscillate. Yes - agreed, in most cases. However, this is a necessary oscillation condition only, and not a sufficient one.
