METHOD FOR GENERATION OF CONTROL SIGNAL RELAY SYSTEMS AND RELAY CONTROLLER WHICH IMPLEMENTS SAID METHOD Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: automatic control equipment, in particular, for spacecraft control systems. SUBSTANCE: method involves independent alternate setting of control signal duration τ_d and control signal pause τ_p according fixed values of measured input signal so that no delay is added in control system. Corresponding relay regulator has analog-to-digital converter, memory unit, digital comparator, flip-flop, multiplexer, generator and pulse counter. Target parameters τ_d and τ_p depending on input signal are stored in memory unit, so that relay regulator adds no delay in control system due to continuous comparison of real values to target ones. EFFECT: increased stability range, decreased duration of transient process and power consumption. 2 cl, 1 dwg
