  • Abstract
    Computer-level faults leading to data errors in computations are predicted to occur increasingly frequent in future microprocessors. This work discusses the impact of such errors on closed-loop performance in implementations of digital control system. A method to render a control system more robust to data errors by introducing artificial signal limits and then combine them with an anti-windup scheme is presented and exemplified.
