This paper proposes a new closed-loop identification scheme for a single-input-single-output control loop. It is based upon a quantizer inserted into the feedback path. The quantizer can be used to generate an equivalent persistently exciting signal with which the well known two-stage or two-step method can be used directly. Simulation examples and an experimental demonstration are used to illustrate the proposed scheme.
