Design of multiple controllers for networked control systems with delays and packet losses

摘要

We address stabilization problems of networked control systems in the presence of bounded packet losses and time-varying network-induced delays. When the delay is less than the transmission interval, we prove that the stability of the closed-loop system is implied by that of a switched system. Based on theories on switched systems, we present stabilizing conditions by using packet-loss-dependent Lyapunov functions, and design multiple controllers depending on the packet loss and the network-induced delay. Furthermore, based on the stabilizing conditions, we discuss the robustness of the stabilization against the packet loss and the network-induced delay. Several numerical examples and simulations are worked out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design approach.
