Abstract :
AN excellent way to describe a servomechanism is to picture it as a device which acts with power on the difference, or error, between a desired quantity and an actual quantity. It acts in such a way as, 1. To make the error approximate zero in the steady state. 2. To limit peak errors and the error-time integral when the output quantity is following a typical random input quantity. 3. To recover from sudden disturbances with adequate speed of response and degree of stability.
