lo 0 -10 Fig. 3.When a much stringent requirement Re (Te

1)>
0 is imposed which is sufficient [4] and necessary [ 3 ] for the output process stability (PS), the responses of Fig. 3 can be of use. Now, with 20 lgI
TeI = 10 dB over the working band, andG
=TB,
the attained feedback of 50 dB is much greater than the maximum available feedback in thePS
single loop system (10 dB) and even largerthan
the available feedback in the AGS (not PS) singleloop system (40dB).
It is noteworthy, in pasdng, that band-pass transformed responses of Fig. 3 remain satisfying the conditions of AGS andPS
(contrary to the single4oop system where Popov criterion requires reducing the feedback the larger the smaller relative bandwidth is).We conclude that if Popov criterion is used as the basis for design and the available feedback in a singleloop system without NC is fairly large, then utilizing the NC increases the available feedback significantly. The corrector should be recommended for use in wide-band feedback ampli- fiers and feedback systems with high dynamic accuracy.

I. INTRODUCTION
As for lasa scanning techniques, there have been the developments of electrooptical and acoustooptical seaming systems [ 1
1.
Up to date, the former system is confronted with the problem of electrwptical mate rial,Le.,
the electrooptical constant is not large enough to give an adequate deflection angle for laser displays The latter system is avail- able for widespread application of the-
system except for a high-resolution color-laser projector. In addltmn to the above non- mechanical scanners, a moving-mirror scanner allows color-laser displaysto be readily implemented with advantages (high-resolution, large deflec- tion angle, and anall dependency on temperature and on the wave number of laser sources) over nonmechanical scanners [ 21. For this reason, most laser display investigators have utilized a moving-mirror technique as a horizontal scanner, in spite of its essential mechanical difficulties and the disadvantage in system size compared with elegant nonmechanical scanners. For these reasons, we propose a new scanning system utilizisg multireflection between the two plane mirrors, which performs horizontal scanning by driving the mirror with vertical signaL We
atso
consider the resolution of the system.11. FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLE
