This course covers the concepts of feedback; open loop and closed loop systems, feedback in electrical and mechanical systems, mathematical models of systems and linear approximations, transfer ...

Many applications in test and measurement take advantage of feedback to improve some aspect of performance. In simple power-sourcing instruments, for example, you can use the fact that, given the ...
