Quantitative feedback theory; fundametnals and applications, 2d ed. (CD-ROM included).0849333709 Quantitative feedback theory Quantitative feedback theory (QFT), developed by Isaac Horowitz (Horowitz, 1963; Horowitz and Sidi, 1972), is a frequency domain technique utilising the Nichols chart (NC) in order to achieve a desired robust design over a specified region of plant uncertainty. ; fundametnals and applications, 2d ed.

CRC (Cyclical Redundancy Checking) An error checking technique used to ensure the accuracy of transmitting digital data. The transmitted messages are divided into predetermined lengths which, used as dividends, are divided by a fixed divisor. / Taylor & Francis 2006 594 pages $99.95 Hardcover Control engineering; 20 TJ216 First developed by I.M. Horowitz in 1960, Quantitative Feedback Theory (QFT) is a frequency domain technique for designing a class of control systems for nonlinear plants. This textbook for advanced students and practicing engineers avoids extensive mathematical theorems and instead focuses on the application QFT to real-world problems. In the second edition, Houpis (Air Force Institute of Technology The Naval Postgraduate School serves a similar purpose for the U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps. The U.S. Army does not have a comparable school; Army officers study at the Naval Postgraduate School or AFIT. ) and co-authors present new chapters covering non-diagonal compensator design for MIMO (Multiple Input/Multiple Output) Pronounced "my-mo," it is the use of multiple transmitters and receivers (multiple antennas) on wireless devices for improved performance. systems and the use of the Smith Predictor for time delay systems with uncertainty. The current volume also features new and revised examples as well as a problems section and a companion CD containing MIMO QFT CAD software. ([c]20062005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR) |
