On Hybrid Control Problems in Communication Systems
Karl Henrik Johansson, Fortunato Santucci · 2006
The importance of a strong research agenda on the convergence of communications and control has been emphasized by several researchers recently. The purpose of this paper is to evidence through concrete application examples how the envisioned synergy can actually be exploited. The focus is on control of wireless communication networks. In order to address in a rigorous and exhaustive way the complexity of interactions that usually arise in these systems, we try to devise how hybrid modelling may intrinsically provide a theoretical framework to formulate problems and provide partial solutions.
