Another category of control strategies involves the use of signal relays or function blocks with the ability to switch between
As we have discussed, feedforward control is a way to improve the stability of a feedback control system in the
Feedforward control works by directly modulating the manipulated variable in a control system according to changes sensed in the load(s).
Let us consider a liquid level control system on an open tank, where three different fluid ingredients (shown in the
