Abstract
Abstract A method of synthesizing a control system which provides for ideal properties of zero error in both transient and steady state with respect to both input command and external disturbance in an inherently adaptive/self-tuning manner as no parameters of the object under the control are needed to be known wherein the control system utilizes a Control Basic Building Block (CBBB) consisting of an inner positive voltage feedback loop within an outer negative voltage feedback loop incorporating prescribed stabilization circuits for maintaining system stability.
