NON-LINEAR CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A SINGLE INPUT - SINGLE OUTPUT PROCESS

摘要

A control system and method for providing a non-linear response for a single input-single output system. A system output is measuredand compared against a predetermined set point. An error signal from this measurement is used to identify an entry in a lookup table. Theentry is a control signal used to vary the input to the system so as to reach a desired output. The lookup table entries are configured sothat as the output reaches the desired set point, smaller and smaller incremental steps are taken in varying the input.
