  • Abstract
    A procedure is presented for the suppression of limit-cycle oscillations in unity-feedback control systems which have an on-off type nonlinearity in cascade with a linear transfer function. The procedure is based on the introduction of a minor loop into the system. This produces a high-frequency periodic signal at the input of the nonlinearity, and thereby limit-cycle oscillations are suppressed.
