A Feedback Control System is 1) a management system that monitors and assesses the processes and outcomes periodically or continuously to make changes for improved performance and efficiency; 2) a type of process control system that uses the output as opposed to the input measured process variable via a sensor in making calculated corrective adjustments or modifications to the selected (independent) input variable to achieve a controlled (dependent) output variable. The process signal can be electrical or electronic, ranging from very simple to highly complex circuits. (Refer to the Closed Loop Control System, and opposite of Feedforward Control)
