Co-design in Heterogeneous Wireless Networked Control Systems
Résumé
This paper presents a co-design approach for heterogeneous wireless networked control systems (HWNCS). An isolated design of controller and network architecture for the networked control system does not guarantee good performance if network dynamics are not included in the loop. Estimation of the delay, packet loss and errors is important especially when the control information passes through a heterogeneous wireless network. Co-design approach for the HWNCS, suggests that the control system must accommodate the variations in network quality of service or vice versa, so that it will not affect the stability and performance of the system over network.
