This paper introduces a novel event-triggered scheme into networked control systems which is used to determine when to transmit the newly sampled state information to the controller. Considering the effect of the network transmission delay and probabilistic actuator fault with different failure rates, a new actuator fault model is proposed under this event-triggered scheme. Then, criteria for the exponential mean square stability (EMSS) and criteria for codesigning both the feedback and the trigger parameters are derived by using Lyapunov functional method. These criteria are obtained in the form of linear matrix inequalities. A simulation example is employed to show that our event-triggered scheme can lead to a larger release period than some existing ones.

This study focus on α-Stability constraints for uncertain networked control systems (NCSs) subject to disturbance inputs, where the network transmission is connected with time-delay and packet dropout. The overall NCSs model is derived. In order to obtain much less conservative results, the sufficient condition for feasibility is presented in term of 2nd Lyapunov stability theory and a set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). This LMI approach can be the optimization problem of computation of the maximal allowed bound on the time-delay for NCSs.

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.

For networked control systems, the bandwidth resource is always limited; thus besides control performance, the efficient resource utilization is also crucial. In this paper, a novel event-triggered control and resource scheduling codesign approach is proposed to stabilize the uncertain dynamic systems which are subject to time-varying network introduced delays. A discrete switched system with uncertain parameters is employed to model the event-triggered control system with time-varying network-induced delays. Based on the model, a control law, scheduling strategy, and event-triggered condition codesign approach is investigated. A set of linear matrix inequalities are used to tackle the codesign problem. As the solution to the problem, a control law is obtained to guarantee stability or certain performance properties; an event-triggered condition and a scheduling strategy are also obtained to efficiently utilize the limited resources. That is, the event-triggered condition makes the network accession be triggered when it is necessary. The scheduling strategy guarantees the control loop suffering the worst control performance can get the authority to access the network. The proposed approach is evaluated through simulated experiments, with respect to the networked control of inverted pendulums. The results show that the proposed event-triggered control and scheduling approach can achieve better control performances with lower average resource consumption in comparison with the time-based control strategy.

H∞ control for networked control systems with exogenous disturbances and norm-bounded parameter uncertainties has been extensively investigated. However, how to better use the limited network capacity and computation resources while reducing the conservativeness of the H∞ control is still not fully understood. This paper presents a new dynamic discrete event-triggered scheme with improved modelling and control design to tackle this problem. The event-triggering is designed with periodic data sampling, and consequently the closed-loop system is formulated as a unified time-delayed model with the sampled data. From this model, an augmented Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional is constructed with triple-integral terms. A new free-weight matrix technique and the Wirtinger-based inequality are utilized over the Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional to derive a less conservative controller. This leads to two delay-range-dependent stability criteria in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Integrating all these components forms a co-design method for the minimum H∞ performance index and our event-triggered scheme. Simulation experiments are conducted to demonstrate the approach presented in this paper.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is with robust control problem for event-triggered networked control systems (NCSs) with actuator failures and time-varying transmission delays. Design/methodology/approach – A random sequence is introduced to describe the actuator faults, and a novel event-triggering communication scheme is adopted in the sensor-to-controller channel. By taking the event-triggered mechanism and network transmission delay into consideration, a delay system model is constructed. Findings – Based on Lyapunov stability theory and free weighting matrix method, the feasibility criteria for co-designing both the controller gain and the trigger parameters are derived. Finally, a simulation example is exploited to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) approach. Originality/value – The introduced approach is interesting for NCSs with actuator failures and time-varying transmission delays.

This paper presents an optimized algorithm for event-triggered control (ETC) of networked control systems (NCS). Initially, the traditional backstepping controller is designed for a generalized nonlinear plant in strict-feedback form that is subsequently extended to the ETC. In the NCS, the controller and the plant communicate with each other using a communication network. In order to minimize the bandwidth required, the number of samples to be sent over the communication channel should be reduced. This can be achieved using the non-uniform sampling of data. However, the implementation of non-uniform sampling without a proper event triggering rule might lead the closed-loop system towards instability. Therefore, an optimized event triggering algorithm has been designed such that the system states are always forced to remain in stable trajectory. Additionally, the effect of ETC on the stability of backstepping control has been analyzed using the Lyapunov stability theory. Two case studies on an inverted pendulum system and single-link robot system have been carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed ETC in terms of system states, control effort and inter-event execution time.

The fault detection problem for a class of wireless networked control systems is investigated. A Bernoulli distributed parameter is introduced in modeling the system dynamics; moreover, multiple time delays arising in the communication are taken into account. The detection observer for tracking the system states is designed, which generates both the state errors and the output errors. By adopting the linear matrix inequality method, a sufficient condition for the stability of wireless networked control systems with stochastic uncertainties and multiple time delays is proposed, and the gain of the fault detection observer is obtained. Finally, an illustrated example is provided to show that the observer designed in this paper tracks the system states well when there is no fault in the systems; however, when fault happens, the observer residual signal rises rapidly and the fault can be quickly detected, which demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
