Stabilization of networked control systems via controller and protocol co-design

This paper studies the stabilization for networked control systems with medium access constraint via controller and protocol co-design. The closed-loop networked control system is modeled as a discrete-time switched system. Sufficient conditions are presented for the exponential stability of the closed-loop networked control system by the average dwell time method. Based on the conditions, stabilizing controllers and the scheduling protocols are designed. Finally a numerical example is employed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
