Quantized networked predictive control of systems with communication delays

This paper is concerned with the design problem of the quantized feedback controller for networked control systems. A novel networked predictive control strategy is proposed to compensate for the networked-induced delay and data dropout. A sufficient condition for the stabilization is derived based on the switched Lyapunov function approach in terms of linear matrix inequalities. A novel iterative algorithm is proposed to obtain the feedback controller gains. A numerical example is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
