Abstract
The arterial pressure in animals is maintained within narrow limit over a wide range of body conditions inspite of many factors and functions involved. The baroreceptor reflexes qualify as the regulatory mechanism. The baroreceptor reflex composes a feedback control system which has the arterial pressure for its output. The system is concidered to operate around a particular set point of arterial pressure, above or below which changes in autonomic activities are evoked. However, under what principle, the regulation of arterial pressure is determined remains unsolved. Among many possibilities we have chosen the optimal criteria to be elucidated. The first indication of optimal relations in the cardiovascular function is found in Broemser’s paper (1935). Recently a few papers in this field have been proposed (Takaya,1972; Ono, et al, 1976; 1977; 1979; Kenner, 1974; Yamashiro, et al, 1978; Doubek, 1978; Suga, 1979).
