Description
Summary:An important aspect in modeling dynamic phenomena consists in measuring with higher accuracy some physical quantities corresponding to the dynamic system. Yet for measurements performed on limited time interval at high working frequency, certain intelligent methods should be added. The high working frequency requires that the measurement and data processing time interval should be greater than the time interval when the step input is received, so as to allow an accurate measurement. This paper will show that an intelligent processing method based on oscillating second-order systems working on limited time interval can differentiate between large step inputs (which are active on the whole limited time interval) and short step inputs (which are active on a time interval shorter than the limited working period). Some resonance aspects (appearing when the input frequency is close to the working frequency of the oscillating second-order system) will be also presented.
