Abstract
A calibration of a loop gain in a digital servo system is presented. The loop gain can be calibrated measuring the response in a control signal generated by the digital servo system when the control signal is replaced by a sum of the control signal and a sinusoidal disturbance. The loop gain can be set to provide a desired gain, for example unity, between the control signal and the sinusoidal disturbance at a cross-over frequency.
