First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of conditioning a signal being communicated between a system to be controlled and a controller, the method comprising:
- monitoring an actual output signal;
filtering the actual output signal by using at least one filter to provide a filtered signal;
determining a difference between the actual output signal and the filtered signal; and
setting at least one characteristic parameter of the at least one filter based on the difference between the actual output signal and the filtered signal,wherein the at least one characteristic parameter includes a corner frequency of the at least one filter.

Abstract
A method of conditioning a signal being communicated between a system to be controlled and a controller may include monitoring an actual output signal and conditioning the actual output signal. The method also includes determining the difference between the actual output signal and the condition signal and causing the actual output signal to be filtered based on the relationship between the difference between the actual output signal and the conditioned signal.

8. A method of conditioning a signal being communicated between a system to be controlled and a controller, the method comprising:
-
monitoring an actual output signal; filtering the actual output signal to provide a filtered signal; determining a difference between the actual output signal and the filtered signal; and applying both a filter and closed loop control to the actual output signal based on the difference between the actual output signal and the filtered signal, wherein the closed loop control consists of Proportional Integral Differential (PID) closed loop control with deadband.
