Abstract

Control loops closed over wireless links greatly benefit from accurate estimates of the communication channel condition. To this end, the finite-state Markov channel model allows for reliable channel state estimation. This paper develops a Markov jump linear system representation for wireless networked control with persistent channel state observation, stochastic message losses, and generalized packet dropout compensation. With this model, we solve the finite- and infinite-horizon linear quadratic regulation problems and introduce an easy-to-test stability condition for any given infinite-horizon control law. We also thoroughly analyze the impact of a scalar general dropout compensation factor on the stability and closed-loop performance of a rotary inverted pendulum controlled remotely through a wireless link. Finally, we validate the results numerically via extensive Monte Carlo simulations, showing the benefits of the proposed control strategy.
