Event-triggered Pulse Control with Model Learning (if Necessary)

Systems and Control 2019-03-20 v1

Abstract

In networked control systems, communication is a shared and therefore scarce resource. Event-triggered control (ETC) can achieve high performance control with a significantly reduced amount of samples compared to classical, periodic control schemes. However, ETC methods usually rely on the availability of an accurate dynamics model, which is oftentimes not readily available. In this paper, we propose a novel event-triggered pulse control strategy that learns dynamics models if necessary. In addition to adapting to changing dynamics, the method also represents a suitable replacement for the integral part typically used in periodic control.
