  • Abstract
    Some earlier results [1] are extended to a mode of control for the system \\ddot{\\theta}(t) - M_{\\alpha }\\theta(t) = \\ddot{\\theta}_{T} u(t) when the command is zero, that is, the on-off-on limit-cycle mode which is quite popular with missile control designers. Measures which describe the performance of this system during the on-off-on mode are tabulated as functions of the limit-cycle\´s switching amplitudes \\theta_{s} and \\dot{\\theta}_{s} . An application is given.
