A SURVEY OF TECHNIQUES FOR THE ANALYSIS OF SAMPLED-DATA SYSTEMS WITH A VARIABLE SAMPLING RATE

Abstract

Several techniques are presented for the analysis of sampled-data systems with a non-constant sampling period. The application of z-transform techniques is limited to cases where the sampling pattern repeats periodically; Several special cases, including the cyclically-varying sampling period and the skipped-sample problem are outlined. The most general methods available are based on a direct solution of the system difference equations. These equations, while time consuming, do make possible the evaluation of transient response sample-by-sample. The advantages, limitations and possible extensions of the various methods are outlined. A number of simple examples and an extensive bibliography are included. (Author)
