Abstract
A method of rendering feedback control systems amenable to treatment by the Wiener theory is applied to the case in which the controller operates on a sampled measurement. An explicit expression is obtained for the minimum attainable mean-square error for certain classes of system transfer functions and disturbance power spectra, and the form of the optimum controller is derived. The results show the inherent limitations in controllability imposed by the structure of the controlled system and by the sampling process.
