Linear behavior and dynamic behavior of a sensor

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on modeling a sensor's static behavior using a first-order lag transfer function. The user encounters an issue where the constant term 'a' disappears when converting the transfer function to the time domain, resulting in a static response that only includes 'b'. Suggestions include reviewing a referenced PDF that addresses DC offsets in first-order systems. The need for a solution to retain the constant in the static response is emphasized. Understanding how to incorporate the constant term is crucial for accurate sensor modeling.

I want to model a sensor with the static behavior:

y(t)=a+by_{0}(t)

using a first order lag:

G(s)=\frac{K}{1+Ts}

However, if i try to convert this order lag in time domain and set the derivative as 0, what i get as static response is:
<br /> y(t)=Ky_{0}(t)=by_{0}(t)

And the a constant has disappeared, what can i do ?

I am trying to understand how transferring electric from the powerplant to my house is more effective using high voltage. The suggested explanation that the current is equal to the power supply divided by the voltage, and hence higher voltage leads to lower current and as a result to a lower power loss on the conductives is very confusing me. I know that the current is determined by the voltage and the resistance, and not by a power capability - which defines a limit to the allowable...
