Abstract

A method and system of improving the performance of an embedded control system by reducing the complexity of an averaging process. An average windowing filter with an average window size is implemented. A first processed data value is retrieved from memory and a current data value is determined. A past data value within the average data window is determined and the difference between the current data value and the past data value is calculated. An average of the difference over the average data window size is then determined. Finally, an output signal is generated based on the sum of the average and the first processed data value.
