Communication-Protocol-Based Filtering and Control of Networked
Systems is a self-contained treatment of
- the state of the art in communication-protocol-based filtering and
control;
- recent advances in networked systems; and
- the potential for application in sensor networks.
This book provides new concepts, new models and new methodologies with
practical significance in control engineering and signal processing. The
book first establishes signal-transmission models subject to different
communication protocols and then develops new filter design techniques
based on those models and preset requirements for filtering performance.
The authors then extend this work to finite-horizon H-infinity
control, ultimately bounded control and finite-horizon consensus
control. The focus throughout is on three typical communications
protocols: the round-robin, random-access and try-once-and-discard
protocols, and the systems studied are drawn from a variety of classes,
among them nonlinear systems, time-delayed and time-varying systems,
multi-agent systems and complex networks.
Readers are shown the latest techniques--recursive linear matrix
inequalities, backward recursive difference equations, stochastic
analysis and mapping methods. The unified framework for
communication-protocol-based filtering and control for different
networked systems established in the book will be of interest to
academic researchers and practicing engineers working with
communications and other signal-processing systems. Senior undergraduate
and graduate students looking to increase their knowledge of current
methods in control and signal processing of networked systems will also
find this book valuable.
