Feedback-control schemes for linear systems have been around since at least the 17 th century, regulating pressure and distance between millstones and then, famously, to control James Watt’s steam ...

In the past few years, the pitch on digital control of switching regulators has been rising steadily. In a typical analog implementation, a pulse-width-modulated (PWM) switching regulator is built ...

BEIJING — Chinese regulators will exercise greater control over the algorithms used by Chinese technology firms to personalize and recommend content, the latest move in a regulation spree across the ...

If you’ve been anywhere on social media in the past few years, you’ll likely have noticed an increase in suspicion amongst ordinary (read: non-marketing) people regarding algorithms, tracking, ...

High-performance motors need a control mechanism that ensures enhanced smoothness, reliability, and efficiency. One of the most apt examples of such an application is the motor used in ...

The internal model principle is a 30-years-young idea that serves as the basis for a myriad of modern motion control approaches. One such algorithm — harmonic cancellation — is indispensable to ...

Every programmer is faced with a double challenge. There is, on the one hand, a need to master some programming language to overcome the technical hurdle of conveying our intentions to a machine that ...

Back in the hazy olden days of the pre-2000s, navigating between two locations generally required someone to whip out a paper map and painstakingly figure out the most optimal route between those ...

In this article learn about options for measuring current in motor control applications, the strengths and challenges of these options, and how using precision current measurement can optimize the ...

A research team from Swiss research institute ETH Zurich has created a new algorithm for operating inverters in a grid-forming mode. The patented algorithm operates the inverter as a voltage source, ...
