Distributed sensing and control under information constraints

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Decentralization is a necessity in reconfigurable sensor networks and large-scale systems, due to exhaustive computation and communication requirements if the systems were centralized. Such decentralized sensing and control architectures have applications in many areas including environmental detection, rescue operations, traffic management, formation control, and aerospace technology. In such systems, the understanding of the value of partial information and the utilization of it is very critical. The information transfer between the components of such systems can be through bandlimited wireline channels or noisy channels such as the Internet and wireless networks.
