Data Transmission Over Networks for Estimation and Control (original) (raw)

Abstract

We consider the problem of controlling a linear time invariant process when the controller is located at a location remote from where the sensor measurements are being generated. The communication from the sensor to the estimator is supported by a communication network with arbitrary topology composed of channels that stochastically drop packets. Using a separation principle, we prove that the optimal LQG controller consists of an LQ optimal regulator along with an estimator that estimates the state of the process across the communication network mentioned above.
