ABSTRACT:
By taking into consideration the measurement uncertainties in the form of standard errors, the performance of APC controllers may be efficiently enhanced by using the standard errors as a control input. For example, the filter parameter of an EWMA filter may be efficiently scaled on the basis of a standard error of measurement data.
