Abstract :
This paper presents practical performance results for wireless network control systems (WNCS) using the IEEE 802.11b standard. A practical platform using a reverberation chamber is outlined, which allows for repeatable multipath conditions. Results for a cart-mounted inverted pendulum case study are analysed and the experimentally recorded round trip delay (RTD) is characterised for use in Monte Carlo simulations of a network predictive controller.
