Practice Questions

Question 1

Why is an implemented control design often refined after it is tested on real hardware?

Question 2

What is a common problem when an actuator reaches its maximum output while the controller still asks for more?

Question 3

What is the main purpose of adding a low-pass filter to a noisy sensor signal?

Question 4

Why is sensor calibration important during refinement?

Question 5

A controller makes the actuator rapidly switch on and off near the setpoint because the sensor reading is slightly noisy. Which change is most likely to help?
