Networked Control Systems: The Communication Basics and Control Methodologies

الملخص EN

As an emerging research field, networked control systems have shown the increasing importance and attracted more and more attention in the recent years.

The integration of control and communication in networked control systems has made the design and analysis of such systems a great theoretical challenge for conventional control theory.

Such an integration also makes the implementation of networked control systems a necessary intermediate step towards the final convergence of control, communication, and computation.

We here introduce the basics of networked control systems and then describe the state-of-the-art research in this field.

We hope such a brief tutorial can be useful to inspire further development of networked control systems in both theory and potential applications.
