Analogue Filters and their Applications in Control Systems

Control systems find their applications in various complex consortiums of the modern technical era. From navigation and mapping to voice monitoring these networks play a significant role in the field of electronic devices. However, the design of these systems is quite complex and is made use of with the help of a number of filtering units. Mainly the analogue filters, they provide the sufficient amount of data filtering by using a number of well-defined algorithms. In principle, the design of such filters can be achieved entirely in terms of the electronic counterparts of mechanical quantities, with kinetic energy, potential energy and heat energy corresponding to the energy in inductors, capacitors and resistors respectively. Modern techniques also include the use of various modified filters essentially used for special purposes. These are fabricated in order to target a specific function and filter only a specific kind of data. One such filter being used these days is the advanced Kalman filter. The filter is altered in order to carry out single-handed operations and block a number of unrequired signals in the arena of telecommunication networking.
