Novel low-power wireless technologies and IoT applications open the door to the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). In this new paradigm, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) must fulfil, despite energy and transmission power limitations, the challenging communication requirements of advanced manufacturing processes and technologies. In industrial networks, this is possible thanks to the availability of network infrastructure and the presence of a network coordinator that efficiently allocates the available radio resources. In this work, we consider a WSN that simultaneously transmits measurements of Networked Control Systems (NCSs) dynamics to remote state estimators over a shared packet-erasure channel. We develop a minimum transmission power control (TPC) policy for the coordination of the wireless medium by formulating an infinite horizon Markov decision process (MDP) optimization problem. We compute the policy using an approximate value iteration algorithm and provide an extensive evaluation of its parameters in different interference scenarios and NCSs dynamics. The evaluation results present a comprehensive characterization of the algorithms performance, proving that it can flexibly adapt to arbitrary use cases.

We consider the problem of communication allocation for remote state estimation in a cognitive radio sensor network~(CRSN). A sensor collects measurements of a physical plant, and transmits the data to a remote estimator as a secondary user (SU) in t he shared network. The existence of the primal users (PUs) brings exogenous uncertainties into the transmission scheduling process, and how to design an event-based scheduling scheme considering these uncertainties has not been addressed in the literature. In this work, we start from the formulation of a discrete-time remote estimation process in the CRSN, and then analyze the hidden information contained in the absence of data transmission. In order to achieve a better tradeoff between estimation performance and communication consumption, we propose both open-loop and closed-loop schedules using the hidden information under a Bayesian setting. The open-loop schedule does not rely on any feedback signal but only works for stable plants. For unstable plants, a closed-loop schedule is designed based on feedback signals. The parameter design problems in both schedules are efficiently solved by convex programming. Numerical simulations are included to illustrate the theoretical results.
In this paper we consider the problem of transmission power allocation for remote estimation of a dynamical system in the case where the estimator is able to simultaneously receive packets from multiple interfering sensors, as it is possible e.g. wit h the latest wireless technologies such as 5G and WiFi. To this end we introduce a general model where packet arrival probabilities are determined based on the received Signal-to-Interference-and-Noise Ratio and with two different receivers design schemes, one implementing standard multi-packet reception technique and one implementing Successive Interference Cancellation decoding algorithm in addition. Then we cast the power allocation problem as an optimization task where the mean error covariance at the remote estimator is minimized, while penalizing the mean transmission power consumption. For the infinite-horizon problem we show the existence of a stationary optimal policy, while for the finite-horizon case we derive some structural properties under the special scenario where the overall system to be estimated can be seen as a set of independent subsystems. Numerical simulations illustrate the improvement given by the proposed receivers over orthogonal schemes that schedules only one sensor transmission at a time in order to avoid interference.
We consider a remote state estimation problem in the presence of an eavesdropper over packet dropping links. A smart sensor transmits its local estimates to a legitimate remote estimator, in the course of which an eavesdropper can randomly overhear t he transmission. This problem has been well studied for unstable dynamical systems, but seldom for stable systems. In this paper, we target at stable and marginally stable systems and aim to design an event-triggered scheduling strategy by minimizing the expected error covariance at the remote estimator and keeping that at the eavesdropper above a user-specified lower bound. To this end, we model the evolution of the error covariance as an infinite recurrent Markov chain and develop a recurrence relation to describe the stationary distribution of the state at the eavesdropper. Monotonicity and convergence properties of the expected error covariance are further investigated and employed to solve the optimization problem. Numerical examples are provided to validate the theoretical results.
Technological advances have made wireless sensors cheap and reliable enough to be brought into industrial use. A major challenge arises from the fact that wireless channels introduce random packet dropouts. Power control and coding are key enabling t echnologies in wireless communications to ensure efficient communications. In the present work, we examine the role of power control and coding for Kalman filtering over wireless correlated channels. Two estimation architectures are considered: In the first, the sensors send their measurements directly to a single gateway. In the second scheme, wireless relay nodes provide additional links. The gateway decides on the coding scheme and the transmitter power levels of the wireless nodes. The decision process is carried out on-line and adapts to varying channel conditions in order to improve the trade-off between state estimation accuracy and energy expenditure. In combination with predictive power control, we investigate the use of multiple-description coding, zero-error coding and network coding and provide sufficient conditions for the expectation of the estimation error covariance matrix to be bounded. Numerical results suggest that the proposed method may lead to energy savings of around 50 %, when compared to an alternative scheme, wherein transmission power levels and bit-rates are governed by simple logic. In particular, zero-error coding is preferable at time instances with high channel gains, whereas multiple-description coding is superior for time instances with low gains. When channels between the sensors and the gateway are in deep fades, network coding improves estimation accuracy significantly without sacrificing energy efficiency.
We present an omnidirectional wireless power transfer (WPT) system capable of automatic power flow control using three orthogonal transmitter (Tx)-repeater (Rp) pairs. The power drawn from each transmitter is automatically adjusted depending on the m utual inductance between the receiver and the Tx-Rp pair. The proposed approach enables the receiver to harvest almost uniform power with high efficiency (90%) regardless of its position.
