ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a flexible notch filter for use in a servo system to eliminate natural mechanical resonance. The filter is an improved "twin-T" type where the "in-phase" output of the filter is fed back into the filter. Varying the feedback varies the bandwidth of the filter. The improved filter further provides for attenuation control in addition to control of the center frequency of the filter. The advantage of this filter over prior art designs is that one filter may be manufactured and adapted to be used in many servo systems since the filter can be easily adjusted to effectively eliminate the natural resonating frequency of the machine in addition to reducing phase lag at frequencies below the center frequency of the notch filter.
