Stabilization of network controlled system with multiple-packet transmission

This paper considers stabilization of network controlled systems (NCSs) with multiple-packet transmission. For NCSs node devices acting over a limited communication channel, we are particularly interested in the case that only one packet containing part of the state information can be transmitted at a time. Even if a state feedback is intended for the original system, control such a system is an output feedback problem. For NCSs transmitted in a periodic manner, sufficient conditions on stability and stabilization of the NCSs are presented. For NCSs transmitted in a stochastic manner, sufficient conditions on the mean square stabilization of NCSs are developed. Finally, numerical examples are given to show that the unstable system can be stabilized with part of state information transmitted over the network channel.
