In the networked control systems, control performance and network performance are closely related to the sampling period influenced by the network-induced delay. So in order to improve the network performance by adjusting the current sampling period, a period-vary sampling scheme is proposed based on an adjuster for the sampling period designed. In this scheme, the adjuster consists of a monitor, which acquires network resources utilization and the executive time of data packet, and a predictor, which uses BP neural network to predict the next sampling period by utilizing network resources utilization and data packet executive time. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme can alleviate the influence of time delay and improve the performance of the networked control systems.

This paper is concerned with fault detection filter design for continuous-time networked control systems considering packet dropouts and network-induced delays. The active-varying sampling period method is introduced to establish a new discretized model for the considered networked control systems. The mutually exclusive distribution characteristic of packet dropouts and network-induced delays is made full use of to derive less conservative fault detection filter design criteria. Compared with the fault detection filter design adopting a constant sampling period, the proposed active-varying sampling-based fault detection filter design can improve the sensitivity of the residual signal to faults and shorten the needed time for fault detection. The simulation results illustrate the merits and effectiveness of the proposed fault detection filter design.

The use of communication networks in control systems has several important advantages, such as the ability of information transfer and remote control of various objects, the possibility of modifications and maintenance. On the other hand, the time between reading measurements from the sensor and sending a control signal to the actuator depends on the network characteristics (topology and routing scheme), and such a time delay can greatly affect the overall network performance. Delays, distortions and loss of transmitted data not only degrade the performance of the network management system, but also destabilize it. The paper considers the use of Petri nets as a method for modeling networked control systems (NCS) on the example of designing an active suspension control system for a car. When modeling, the star and common bus topologies were used, the comparison of which revealed that control systems with the common bus topology function 40% faster than systems with the star topology.

In networked control systems with multi-step delay, long time-delay causes vacant sampling and controller design difficulty. In order to solve the above problems, comprehensive control methods are proposed in this paper. Time-delay compensation control and linear-quadratic-Guassian (LQG) optimal control are adopted and the systems switch different controllers between two different states. LQG optimal controller is used with probability1-αin normal state, which is shown to render the systems mean square exponentially stable. Time-delay compensation controller is used with probabilityαin abnormal state to compensate vacant sampling and long time-delay. In addition, a buffer window is established at the actuator of the systems to store some history control inputs which are used to estimate the control state of present sampling period under the vacant sampling cases. The comprehensive control methods simplify control design which is easier to be implemented in engineering. The performance of the systems is also improved. Simulation results verify the validity of the proposed theory.

This paper investigates the event-triggered H∞ control for networked control systems under the denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. First, a novel system model is established considering random, time-constraint DoS attacks. Second, an event-triggered scheme including an off-time is proposed to reduce the unnecessary occupation of network resources, with which a prescribed minimum inter-triggering time is guaranteed and Zeno problem is avoided. Third, sufficient conditions for the existence of an event-triggered controller which ensures the exponential stability of the closed-loop system with desired H∞ performance are formulated in linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is examined by two illustrative examples, where a real communication network based on the ZigBee protocol is utilized.

This paper is concerned with the problem of finite-time dissipative control for networked control systems by hybrid triggered scheme. In order to save network resources, a hybrid triggered scheme is proposed, which consists of time-triggered scheme and event-triggered scheme simultaneously. Firstly, sufficient conditions are derived to guarantee that the closed-loop system is finite-time bounded (FTBD) and [Formula: see text] dissipative. Secondly, the corresponding controller design approach is presented based on the derived conditions. Finally, a numerical example is presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
