Adaptive relay-based control of household freezers with on-off actuators
TL;DR: In this paper, an adaptive scheme for temperature control in household freezers with low-end sensing and actuation equipment, like on-off compressors and dampers, is described, based on an auxiliary filter introduced in the relay loop to alter and improve the characteristics of the induced oscillation.
