Linear behavior and dynamic behavior of a sensor

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on modeling a sensor's static behavior using a first-order lag transfer function represented as G(s) = K/(1 + Ts). The user encounters an issue where the constant 'a' disappears when converting the transfer function to the time domain, resulting in the static response y(t) = Ky0(t) = by0(t). The solution involves consulting section 3 of a referenced PDF, which addresses DC offsets in the transfer functions of first-order systems.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of first-order lag systems
  • Familiarity with transfer functions in control systems
  • Knowledge of time-domain analysis
  • Basic concepts of DC offsets in signal processing
NEXT STEPS
  • Review the PDF on first-order systems for insights on DC offsets
  • Study time-domain conversion techniques for transfer functions
  • Explore methods to incorporate constants in transfer function models
  • Investigate advanced modeling techniques for sensor behavior
USEFUL FOR

Control engineers, system modelers, and anyone involved in sensor design and analysis will benefit from this discussion.

I want to model a sensor with the static behavior:

[itex]y(t)=a+by_{0}(t)[/itex]

using a first order lag:

[itex]G(s)=\frac{K}{1+Ts}[/itex]

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:
[itex] y(t)=Ky_{0}(t)=by_{0}(t)[/itex]

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