`
`system. The error signal e(t) is sampled by a sampling device, the sampler, and
`the output of the sampler is a sequence of pulses. The sampling rate of the sam(cid:173)
`pler mayor may not be uniform. There are many advantages of incorporating
`sampling in a control system, one of the most easily understood of these being
`that sampling provides time sharing of an expensive equipment among several
`control channels.
`Because digital computers provide many advantages in size and flexibility,
`computer control has become increasingly popular in recent years. Many air(cid:173)
`borne systems contain digital controllers that can pack several thousand discrete
`elements in a space no larger than the size of this book. Figure 1-14 shows the
`basic elements of a digital autopilot for a guided missile.
