in this paper we focus on the tracking performance of incremental adaptive LMS algorithm in an adaptive network. For this reason we consider the unknown weight vector to be a time varying sequence. First we analyze the performance of network in tracking a time varying weight vector and then we explain the estimation of Rayleigh fading channel through a random walk model. Closed form relations a...

The problem of controlling large scale systems, usually divided into subsystems controlled by different agents, is usually solved using cooperative distributed control schemes, where the agents share open-loop information in order to improve closed-loop performance, (Rawlings and Mayne 2009, Chapter 6). In this paper we proposed a cooperative distributed linear model predictive control strategy...

This paper investigates the distributed tracking control problem for multiple Lagrangian systems under a general directed graph where only a portion of the agents have access to the desired time-varying trajectory. To overcome the problem that only positions are measured, a observer is designed to estimate the velocity for each follower. By employing the estimated states, the distributed observ...

Wireless sensor network (WSN) of active sensors suffers from serious inter-sensor interference (ISI) and imposes new design and implementation challenges. In this paper, based on the ultrasonic sensor network, two time-division based distributed sensor scheduling schemes are proposed to deal with ISI by scheduling sensors periodically and adaptively respectively. Extended Kalman filter (EKF) is...
