Abstract

A Multi-hop Control Network (MCN) consists of a plant where the communication between sensor, actuator and computational unit is supported by a wireless multi-hop communication network, and data flow is performed using scheduling and routing of sensing and actuation data. We address the problem of characterizing controllability and observability of a MCN, by means of necessary and sufficient conditions on the plant dynamics and on the communication scheduling and routing. We provide a methodology to design scheduling and routing, in order to satisfy controllability and observability of a MCN for any fault occurrence in a given set of configurations of failures.
