LQG Control with Communication Constraints
نویسندگان
چکیده
The average cost control problem for linear stochastic systems with Gaussian noise and quadratic cost is considered in the presence of communication constraints. The latter take the form of finite alphabet codewords, being transmitted to the controller with ensuing delay and distortion. It is shown that if instead of the state observations an associated "innovations process" is encoded and transmitted, then the separation principle holds, leading to an optimal control linear in state estimate. An associated "off-line" optimization problem for code length selection is formulated. Some possible extensions are also pointed out.

Control of LQG Systems Under Communication Constraints
We consider the control performance of an LQG system with a noisy analog feedback channel between the state-observation and the controller. To bound the performance, we use the sequential rate distortion function and the assumption of equi-memory. We then discuss the tradeoffs between control and communication costs and how to relax the equi-memory assumption.
متن کاملLQG Control of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles under Communication Constraints
This paper addresses the LQG control problem for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) with time delays. In particular, the case with data-rate limitations is considered. It is shown in our results that the data rate of the communication channel has important effects on the control performances. It is derived that there exists a tradeoff between the data rate and the LQG cost. A quantization, coding, ...
متن کاملLQG control over communication channels: the role of data losses, delays and SNR limitations
In this work we address the problem feedback control design in the presence of a communication channel, which gives rise to tightly coupled limitations in terms of quantization errors, decoding/computational delays and packet loss affecting the closed loop control performance. We restrict our analysis in the context of LQG control subject to SNR limitations, packet loss, and delay, and we deriv...

متن کاملSensing-Constrained LQG Control
Linear-Quadratic-Gaussian (LQG) control is concerned with the design of an optimal controller and estimator for linear Gaussian systems with imperfect state information. Standard LQG assumes the set of sensor measurements, to be fed to the estimator, to be given. However, in many problems, arising in networked systems and robotics, one may not be able to use all the available sensors, due to po...
