SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Sensitivity (degree of smoothing)
The diagram shows the step responses (from 1 to 0 / from 0 to 1) of the filter with various sensitivity
parameters (degrees of smoothing).
Explanation of the characteristic curves
The sensitivity parameter is the procentual weighting of the last measured pressure value.
Example:
Sensitivity parameter = 90 (see also 90 % characteristic)
The desired mean pressure value is calculated from the formula:
P
A
(k) = 0.1 P
A
(k-1) + 0.9 P
E
(k) or P
A
(k) = 10% P
A
(k-1) + 90% P
E
(k)
P
A
(k) is the mean pressure value to be calculated (filter output)
P
A
(k-1) is the last calculated mean pressure value (filter output) and
P
E
(k) is the previously measured pressure (filter input).
