The paper proposes a novel event-triggered control scheme for nonlinear systems based on the input-delay method. Specifically, the closed-loop system is associated with a pair of auxiliary input and output. The auxiliary output is defined as the derivative of the continuous-time input function, while the auxiliary input is defined as the input disturbance caused by the sampling or equivalently the integral of the auxiliary output over the sampling period. As a result, a cyclic mapping forms from the input to the output via the system dynamics and back from the output to the input via the integral. The event-triggering law is constructed to make the mapping contractive such that the stabilization is achieved and an easy-to-check Zeno-free condition is provided. With this idea, we develop a theorem for the event-triggered control of interconnected nonlinear systems which is employed to solve the event-triggered control for lower-triangular systems with dynamic uncertainties.

This paper considers a remote state estimation problem with multiple sensors observing a dynamical process, where sensors transmit local state estimates over an independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) packet dropping channel to a remote esti mator. At every discrete time instant, the remote estimator decides whether each sensor should transmit or not, with each sensor transmission incurring a fixed energy cost. The channel is shared such that collisions will occur if more than one sensor transmits at a time. Performance is quantified via an optimization problem that minimizes a convex combination of the expected estimation error covariance at the remote estimator and expected energy usage across the sensors. For transmission schedules dependent only on the estimation error covariance at the remote estimator, this work establishes structural results on the optimal scheduling which show that 1) for unstable systems, if the error covariance is large then a sensor will always be scheduled to transmit, and 2) there is a threshold-type behaviour in switching from one sensor transmitting to another. Specializing to the single sensor case, these structural results demonstrate that a threshold policy (i.e. transmit if the error covariance exceeds a certain threshold and dont transmit otherwise) is optimal. We also consider the situation where sensors transmit measurements instead of state estimates, and establish structural results including the optimality of threshold policies for the single sensor, scalar case. These results provide a theoretical justification for the use of such threshold policies in variance based event triggered estimation. Numerical studies confirm the qualitative behaviour predicted by our structural results. An extension of the structural results to Markovian packet drops is also outlined.
This paper studies the optimal output-feedback control of a linear time-invariant system where a stochastic event-based scheduler triggers the communication between the sensor and the controller. The primary goal of the use of this type of scheduling strategy is to provide significant reductions in the usage of the sensor-to-controller communication and, in turn, improve energy expenditure in the network. In this paper, we aim to design an admissible control policy, which is a function of the observed output, to minimize a quadratic cost function while employing a stochastic event-triggered scheduler that preserves the Gaussian property of the plant state and the estimation error. For the infinite horizon case, we present analytical expressions that quantify the trade-off between the communication cost and control performance of such event-triggered control systems. This trade-off is confirmed quantitatively via numerical examples.
In the context of event-triggered control, the timing of the triggering events carries information about the state of the system that can be used for stabilization. At each triggering event, not only can information be transmitted by the message cont ent (data payload) but also by its timing. We demonstrate this in the context of stabilization of a laboratory-scale inverted pendulum around its equilibrium point over a digital communication channel with bounded unknown delay. Our event-triggering control strategy encodes timing information by transmitting in a state-dependent fashion and can achieve stabilization using a data payload transmission rate lower than what the data-rate theorem prescribes for classical periodic control policies that do not exploit timing information. Through experimental results, we show that as the delay in the communication channel increases, a higher data payload transmission rate is required to fulfill the proposed event-triggering policy requirements. This confirms the theoretical intuition that a larger delay brings a larger uncertainty about the value of the state at the controller, as less timing information is carried in the communication. In addition, our results also provide a novel encoding-decoding scheme to achieve input-to-state practically stability (ISpS) for nonlinear continuous-time systems under appropriate assumptions.
In the same way that subsequent pauses in spoken language are used to convey information, it is also possible to transmit information in communication networks not only by message content, but also with its timing. This paper presents an event-trigge ring strategy that utilizes timing information by transmitting in a state-dependent fashion. We consider the stabilization of a continuous-time, time-invariant, linear plant over a digital communication channel with bounded delay and subject to bounded plant disturbances and establish two main results. On the one hand, we design an encoding-decoding scheme that guarantees a sufficient information transmission rate for stabilization. On the other hand, we determine a lower bound on the information transmission rate necessary for stabilization by any control policy.
Digital controllers have several advantages with respect to their flexibility and designs simplicity. However, they are subject to problems that are not faced by analog controllers. In particular, these problems are related to the finite word-length implementation that might lead to overflows, limit cycles, and time constraints in fixed-point processors. This paper proposes a new method to detect designs errors in digital controllers using a state-of-the art bounded model checker based on satisfiability modulo theories. The experiments with digital controllers for a ball and beam plant demonstrate that the proposed method can be very effective in finding errors in digital controllers than other existing approaches based on traditional simulations tools.
