Abstract :
Digital system upsets can occur as a result of electrical transients induced by electromagnetic fields. One possible upset is the irrecoverable loss of sensor data due to noisy readings or data changes in the input circuitry. The control system may not perform adequately when faced with such modes of failure. The paper focuses on a technique in which a virtual closed loop is used to overcome these modes of failure. The advantage of using this technique is confirmed by results from a DC motor control system set-up in electromagnetic environments
