Although transmission of a data packet containing sensory information in a networked control system improves the quality of regulation, it has indeed a price from the communication perspective. It is, therefore, rational that such a data…
In the design of closed-loop networked control systems (NCSs), induced transmission delay between sensors and the control station is an often-present issue which compromises control performance and may even cause instability. A very…
