Derivation of the Optimal Sampling Time for 1D

D.1 Derivation of the Optimal Sampling Time for 1D

nx = (xd uxTOSP 2 DxTOSP ) , (D.1)

Squaring both sides

nx2 = (xd2 2xduxTOSP + ux2TOSP 4DxTOSP ) , (D.2)

Multiplying both sides with 4DxTOSP ,

4DxTOSP nx2 = x d2 2x duxTOSP + ux2T OSP . (D.3)

Sides of the equation are switched.

xd2 2x duxTOSP + ux2T OSP = 4DxTOSP nx2, (D.4)

Substracting 4DxTOSP nx2 from both sides,

xd2 2x duxTOSP + ux2T OSP 4DxTOSP nx2 = 4D xTOSP nx2 4D xTOSP nx2, (D.5)

Simplifying the equation,

ux2T OSP (2xdux + 4Dxnx2) T OSP + xd2 = 0, (D.6)

The above equation is in the form of ax2 + bx + c = 0 and therefore the solution to these form of equation are;

T1Dmax,min = b ± b2 4ac 2a , (D.7)

For a = ux2, b = 2xd ux 4Dxnx2 and c = xd 2 the solution becomes;

T1Dmax,min = (2xdux 4Dxnx2) ± (2xdux 4Dxnx2 ) 2 4ux2xd2 2ux2 , (D.8)

The following steps are simplifications for the aforementioned equation.

T1Dmax,min = 2xdux + 4Dxnx2 ± (2xdux 4Dxnx2 ) 2 4ux2xd2 2ux2 , (D.9)

The part (2xdux 4Dxnx2) 2 is opened;

T1Dmax,min = 2xdux + 4Dxnx2 ± (4xd2ux2 + 16xduxDxnx2 + 16Dx2nx4 ) 4ux2xd2 2ux2 , (D.10)

The equation is simplified;

T1Dmax,min = 2xdux + 4Dxnx2 ± 16xduxDxnx2 + 16Dx2nx4 2ux2 , (D.11)

16nx2 is taken out of the squareroot.

T1Dmax,min = 2xdux + 4Dxnx2 ± 4nx xduxDx + Dx2nx2 2ux2 , (D.12)

T1Dmax,min = xdux + 2Dxnx2 ± 2nx xduxDx + Dx2nx2 ux2 , (D.13)

T1Dmax,min = xdux + 2Dxnx2 ± 2nx Dx (Dxnx2 + xdux) ux2 , (D.14)
