Optimal Controller Synthesis and Dynamic Quantizer Switching for Linear-Quadratic-Gaussian Systems
In networked control systems, often the sensory signals are quantized before being transmitted to the controller. Consequently, performance is affected by the coarseness of this quantization process. Modern communication technologies allow users to obtain resolution-varying quantized measurements based on the prices paid. In this paper, we consider optimal controller synthesis of a Quantized-Feedback Linear-Quadratic-Gaussian (QF-LQG) system where the measurements are to be quantized before being transmitted to the controller. The system is presented with several choices of quantizers, along with the cost of operating each quantizer. The objective is to jointly select the quantizers and the controller that would maintain an optimal balance between control performance and quantization cost. Under certain assumptions, this problem can be decoupled into two optimization problems: one for optimal controller synthesis and the other for optimal quantizer selection. We show that, similarly to the classical LQG problem, the optimal controller synthesis subproblem is characterized by Riccati equations. On the other hand, the optimal quantizer selection policy is found by solving a certain Markov-Decision-Process (MDP).

Delays are ubiquitous in modern hybrid systems, which exhibit both continuous and discrete dynamical behaviors. Induced by signal transmission, conversion, the nature of plants, and so on, delays may appear either in the…
Switching Controller Synthesis for Hybrid Systems Against STL Formulas
Switching controllers play a pivotal role in directing hybrid systems (HSs) towards the desired objective, embodying a ``correct-by-construction'' approach to HS design. Identifying these objectives is thus crucial for t…
