Feedback Linearization
• Correct for small errors
• Geometric conversionFeedback
Desired measurement
FPIRC16 11
Switching Feedback On-the-Fly
Switch between multiple sensors over the desired measurement range for maximum measurement resolution in each range.
FPIRC16 12
Switching Feedback On-the-Fly
Example:0-10,000 psi testing system
At 100 psi, this test would give only 10% accuracy.
= .1% accuracy .1% of 10000 psi = ± 10 psi
FPIRC16 13
Switching Feedback On-the-Fly
Use multiple sensors for maximum accuracy over the entire range
Greater testing accuracy achieved by smoothly switching between sensors on-the-fly.
= 0-500 psi, .1% accuracy ± 0.5 psi
= 0-5000 psi, .1% accuracy ± 5 psi
= 0-1000 psi, .1% accuracy ± 10 psi

Control to Average, Difference,
Sum, etc.Example: Pulp refining gap control
Sensor 2Sensor 1
Gap = Sensor 2 – Sensor 1
