Combined gain and phase margins

In this note, the limitations of conventional or separate gain or phase margin are shown. Then, the combined gain and phase margins are introduced to overcome the limitations and suit both stable and unstable systems. A simple method for their computations is presented and its application in stabilization is demonstrated.
