DEFINITION

Classification: 318/616

(under subclass 615) Subject matter in which the auxiliary feedback loop senses the rate of positioning and introduces a signal proportional to the rate into the servo loop to reduce the magnitude of the servo error signal as the final position is approached.

(1) Note. For example, the counter E. M. F. of the servo motor can be measured to obtain the rate signal.
