Abstract :
In this paper, we discuss two issues in the study of networked control systems (NCSs). Firstly, we point out some limitations of current research on NCSs. Secondly, we examine whether NCSs can improve control system performance, and present a counter-argument to the widely held view that "designers choosing to use a networked control system architecture are motivated not by performance, but by cost, maintenance, and reliability." In relation to the second issue, we consider the impact of NCSs on traditional large-scale system control methodologies, and on applications in power system control
