ANALYSIS OF NETWORKED CONTROL SYSTEM WITH PACKET DROPS GOVERNED BY (m,k)-FIRM CONSTRAINT

In this paper we study the effect of the packet drop process governed by (m,k)-firm constraint in the feedback loop of a control system. Our approach is to first analyse the stability and the optimality of such a system then by considering the amplitude variance of the system state as the system performance, we propose a method to optimally distribute the packets to offer a better system performance.
