Abstract
Wireless sensor and actuator networks (WSANs) bring many benefits to industrial automation systems. When a control system is integrated by a WSAN, and particularly if the network scale is large, distributed communication and control methods are quite necessary. However, unreliable wireless and multihop communications among sensors and actuators cause challenges in designing such systems. This paper proposes and evaluates a new distributed estimation and collaborative control scheme for industrial control systems with WSANs. Extensive results show that the proposed method effectively achieves control objectives and maintains robust against inaccurate system parameters. We also discuss how to dynamically extend the scale of a WSAN with only local adjustments of sensors and actuators.

Distributed H ∞ Filtering for a Class of Markovian Jump Nonlinear Time-Delay Systems Over Lossy Sensor Networks

TL;DR: A distributed filter design scheme is outlined by explicitly characterizing the filter gains in terms of some matrix inequalities and simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed filtering scheme.

Cooperative Adaptive Fuzzy Tracking Control for Networked Unknown Nonlinear Multiagent Systems With Time-Varying Actuator Faults

TL;DR: A novel CAFTFTC scheme is proposed to guarantee that all follower nodes asymptotically synchronize a leader node with tracking errors converging to a small adjustable neighborhood of the origin in spite of actuator faults.

Time Synchronization in WSNs: A Maximum-Value-Based Consensus Approach

TL;DR: The weighted maximum time synchronization (WMTS), which is able to counteract the impact of random communication delays, is proposed, which can synchronize the clock skew completely in expectation and achieve acceptable synchronization accuracy.

Semiglobal Observer-Based Leader-Following Consensus With Input Saturation

TL;DR: Under the assumptions that the networks are connected or jointly connected and that each agent is asymptotically null controllable with bounded controls and detectable, semiglobal observer-based leader-following consensus of the multiagent system can be reached on switching networks.

Kalman filtering with intermittent observations

TL;DR: This work addresses the problem of performing Kalman filtering with intermittent observations by showing the existence of a critical value for the arrival rate of the observations, beyond which a transition to an unbounded state error covariance occurs.

An Introduction to the Kalman Filter

Greg Welch, +1 more
TL;DR: The discrete Kalman filter as mentioned in this paper is a set of mathematical equations that provides an efficient computational (recursive) means to estimate the state of a process, in a way that minimizes the mean of the squared error.

Distributed Kalman filtering for sensor networks

TL;DR: A continuous-time distributed Kalman filter that uses local aggregation of the sensor data but attempts to reach a consensus on estimates with other nodes in the network and gives rise to two iterative distributedKalman filtering algorithms with different consensus strategies on estimates.
