  • Abstract
    A complex transfer-function approach to the control of rotating bodies is described. The complex transfer functions are analyzed using classical linear control techniques. Stability conditions based on the location of zeros of the characteristic equations, given as a complex polynomial, are established for the case of a controlled gyro and a homing missile.
