Abstract :
Sufficiently accurate modeling and understanding of the sensors and actuators is necessary to arrive at numerically efficient state estimation and control algorithms since the measurement and sensors provided are corrupted to some degree by the presence of noise, biases and device inaccuracies. This paper describes the sensor and actuator modeling issues that were encountered while trying to achieve the trajectory tracking control of a simple pendulum
