    The result of the O.D. Heck study seemed so startling, especially in light of the positive response FC was getting in the popular press, that Frontline featured the story in its 1993 "Prisoners of Silence". [9] [37] [49] [69] [95] In 1993, Genae A. Hall, research director for the Behavior Analysis Center for Autism, wrote:

  3. Closed-loop transfer function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed-loop_transfer_function

    The closed-loop transfer function is measured at the output. The output signal can be calculated from the closed-loop transfer function and the input signal. Signals may be waveforms, images, or other types of data streams. An example of a closed-loop block diagram, from which a transfer function may be computed, is shown below:

  4. Closed-loop controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed-loop_controller

    A closed loop controller therefore has a feedback loop which ensures the controller exerts a control action to give a process output the same as the "reference input" or "set point". For this reason, closed loop controllers are also called feedback controllers. [3] The definition of a closed loop control system according to the British ...

  5. Closed-loop pole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed-loop_pole

    The closed-loop transfer function may also be obtained by algebraic or block diagram manipulation. Once the closed-loop transfer function is obtained for the system, the closed-loop poles are obtained by solving the characteristic equation. The characteristic equation is nothing more than setting the denominator of the closed-loop transfer ...

  6. Root locus analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_locus_analysis

    The root locus plots the poles of the closed loop transfer function in the complex s-plane as a function of a gain parameter (see pole–zero plot). Evans also invented in 1948 an analog computer to compute root loci, called a "Spirule" (after "spiral" and " slide rule "); it found wide use before the advent of digital computers .

  7. Phase-locked loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-locked_loop

    A phase-locked loop or phase lock loop (PLL) is a control system that generates an output signal whose phase is fixed relative to the phase of an input signal. Keeping the input and output phase in lockstep also implies keeping the input and output frequencies the same, thus a phase-locked loop can also track an input frequency.

  8. Control theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_theory

    A closed loop controller therefore has a feedback loop which ensures the controller exerts a control action to give a process output the same as the "reference input" or "set point". For this reason, closed loop controllers are also called feedback controllers. [11] The definition of a closed loop control system according to the British ...

  9. Open-loop controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-loop_controller

    In closed loop control, the control action from the controller is dependent on the process output. In the case of the boiler analogy this would include a thermostat to monitor the building temperature, and thereby feed back a signal to ensure the controller maintains the building at the temperature set on the thermostat. A closed loop ...
