This paper considers random access in deadline-constrained broadcasting with frame-synchronized traffic. To enhance the maximum achievable timely delivery ratio (TDR), we define a dynamic control scheme that allows each active node to…

We consider the problem of energy-efficient point-to-point transmission of delay-sensitive data (e.g. multimedia data) over a fading channel. Existing research on this topic utilizes either physical-layer centric solutions, namely…

State of the art methods for target tracking with sensor management (or controlled sensing) are model-based and are obtained through solutions to Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP) formulations. In this paper a…

We investigate a remote estimation problem in which a transmitter observes a Markov source and chooses the power level to transmit it over a time-varying packet-drop channel. The channel is modeled as a channel with Markovian state where…

This paper investigates goal-oriented communication for remote estimation of multiple Markov sources in resource-constrained networks. An agent decides the updating times of the sources and transmits the packet to a remote destination over…

We consider status updating under inexact knowledge of the battery level of an energy harvesting (EH) sensor that sends status updates about a random process to users via a cache-enabled edge node. More precisely, the control decisions are…

We consider adapting the transmission rate to maximize the goodput, i.e., the amount of data transmitted without error, over a continuous Markov flat-fading wireless channel. In particular, we consider schemes in which transmitter channel…

Designing data-driven controllers in the presence of noise is an important research problem, in particular when guarantees on stability, robustness, and constraint satisfaction are desired. In this paper, we propose a data-driven min-max…

We consider the optimal control of linear systems over wireless MIMO fading channels, where the MIMO wireless fading and random access of the remote controller may cause intermittent controllability or uncontrollability of the closed-loop…

As a class of state-dependent channels, Markov channels have been long studied in information theory for characterizing the feedback capacity and error exponent. This paper studies a more general variant of such channels where the state…

We consider the problem: is the optimal expected total reward to reach a goal state in a partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP) below a given threshold? We tackle this -- generally undecidable -- problem by computing…

We study the problem of controlling a partially observed Markov decision process (POMDP) to either aid or hinder the estimation of its state trajectory. We encode the estimation objectives via the smoother entropy, which is the conditional…

We consider a multi-source relaying system where the sources independently and randomly generate status update packets which are sent to the destination with the aid of a bufferaided relay through unreliable links. We formulate a stochastic…

Consumption Markov Decision Processes (CMDPs) are probabilistic decision-making models of resource-constrained systems. In a CMDP, the controller possesses a certain amount of a critical resource, such as electric power. Each action of the…

We consider sensor scheduling as the optimal observability problem for partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDP). This model fits to the cases where a Markov process is observed by a single sensor which needs to be dynamically…

A standard assumption in Reinforcement Learning is that the agent observes every visited state-action pair in the associated Markov Decision Process (MDP), along with the per-step rewards. Strong theoretical results are known in this…

We consider a transmitter-receiver pair in a slotted-time system. The transmitter observes a dynamic source and sends updates to a remote receiver through an error-free communication channel that suffers a random delay. We consider two…

This paper addresses the trajectory-tracking problem for discrete-time linear time-invariant systems with bounded parametric uncertainty, subject to hard constraints on system states, control inputs, and input rates. Unlike existing…

Motivated from Bertsekas' recent study on policy iteration (PI) for solving the problems of infinite-horizon discounted Markov decision processes (MDPs) in an on-line setting, we develop an off-line PI integrated with a multi-policy…

Robust optimal or min-max model predictive control (MPC) approaches aim to guarantee constraint satisfaction over a known, bounded uncertainty set while minimizing a worst-case performance bound. Traditionally, these methods compute a…
