Abstract

"A present limitation to the testing of a physical subsystem within an analog simulation is that the analog computer must compute in real time. If it is necessary to time scale the simulation of the complete system, a physical subsystem of the complete subsystem may not be tested within the simulation. Therefore, a means of changing the time scale of the analog signal is needed to test a physical subsystem within a time scaled analog computer simulation.

In this thesis a means of time conversion by sampling the analog signal at one rate, storing the samples, and reading the samples out at another rate is presented. A closed loop test procedure is present ed which requires that the analog signal be converted to real time before applying to the physical subsystem under test, and the output of the subsystem is converted to computer time before being fed back into the analog- simulation. The effect of errors in time conversion on the entire system is also considered"--Abstract, p. ii
