Abstract :
A class of limit cycling feedback control systems is investigated using a simple and practical analytic tool to determine input-output dynamic response characteristics. The nature of the dynamic response adaptivity of such systems is shown. A model is derived for the dynamic response characteristics of the amplitude of the limit cycle. Experimental verification is given for each of the principal theoretical results.
