Output Feedback Stabilization for Discrete-Time Systems Under Limited Communication
This paper addresses the output feedback stabilization problem for discrete-time networked control systems with imperfect input channels, i.e., the controller-actuator channels, where both quantization error and packet dropout are involved. A stabilizability condition is first derived for the single-input-single-output (SISO) case. It is shown that stabilization over quantized lossy channel actually involves a trade-off between robust stability control and robust performance control. Furthermore, the results are expanded to triangularly decoupled multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) systems and a necessary and sufficient condition is deduced, which also exhibits a compromise between robust stability control and robust performance control in the individual channel as echoing the SISO case.
