RELAY REGULATOR Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC G05B11/26 

FIELD: physics; control.

SUBSTANCE: present invention pertains to automatic control technology, particularly to the technology of generating control signals. The relay regulator contains, in each of (2m+1) channels, an analogue-to-digital converter, memory device, digital comparator, pulse generator, pulse counter, trigger, multiplexer, first and second majority elements, OR and XOR elements. The given parameters of duration τ_d and interval τ_i of the control signal as a function of the input signal are stored in the memory device and due to continuous comparison of real values with given values, the relay regulator does not cause delays in the control system. Due to defined connections, correct functioning of the relay regulator can be achieved when there are faults in m channels of the regulator. The proposed relay regulator can be used in different control systems, particularly in spacecraft.

EFFECT: increased efficiency.
