Abstract
This paper presents a method of compensating for a distorted low-pass filter characteristic, which a previous paper pointed out. The method is based on a circuit realization from a predistorted transfer function S(s-d), in which the zeros of the original transfer function S(s) are shifted to the right by d. (d: losscoefficient) The loss-coefficient for fluidic circuits is determined from the value of the series loss element and from analytical calculations using a distributed constant theory.
The experimental results showed that the characteristics of pneumatic filters compensated by this method agreed well with the desired characteristics, especially in the case of the loss-coefficient determined from the analytical calculations.
