Communication-Based Train control (CBTC) systems use bidirectional train-wayside wireless communications to ensure the safe operation of rail vehicles. The random delay and packet drop introduced by wireless communication will lead to inaccurate train status and unnecessary control commands, which will affect the performance of CBTC systems. In this paper, we study the impact of communication delay and packet drop on CBTC systems. We formulate a networked control system (NCS)-based model for CBTC systems with random delay and packet drop, and propose a control scheme based on packet retry limit adaption and guidance trajectory update to improve the train control performances. Simulation result shows that our proposed scheme can significantly improve the energy efficiency and punctuality in CBTC systems compared to existing schemes.

The femtocell - Wi-Fi integration is a promising approach to solve the problem of inter-tier or intra-tier interference in heterogeneous networks. In this paper, multimode femtocell base stations are deployed which form a Wi-Fi mesh network to communicate between themselves while deploying cellular technology (e.g., LTE) for communications with mobile users, thus ensuring ultimately connectivity between mobile users and their macro base stations to improve the network coverage. We propose a tractable model for coverage/outage to evaluate the benefits of such integration in terms of SINR and received signal strength. Our work is based on point processes in two-dimensional plane that models locations of femtocell - Wi-Fi (also referred to as multimode) nodes. The proposed model is more realistic than the classical Poisson point process, as the distribution of points is more homogeneous and it ensures that the nodes are not too close to each other. The derivation of coverage/outage formula allows us to determine operational parameter ranges for the Wi-Fi network to form a mesh network. In addition, it helps in the design of the femtocell network to ensure a suitable coverage for users in terms of SINR and received signal strength.

In this paper, we consider input-affine invertible MIMO nonlinear systems which can be transformed into a special normal form by means of the structure algorithm. The normal form highlights a partial state, a subset of state variables, which plays in this setting a role similar to that of the outputs and its derivatives in a SISO system. It is shown that, if a system in this class can be asymptotically stabilized by means of a static feedback from that partial state, then semiglobal stabilization can be achieved via dynamic feedback driven by the output of the system. The dynamic feedback in question is based a (non–trivial) extension to MIMO systems of the standard high–gain observer.

In this paper, we consider continuous-state systems and pursue a near-optimal policy through online learning. A new online reinforcement learning algorithm-MSEC (Multi-Samples in Each Cell) is proposed. The proposed algorithm combines state aggregation technique and efficient exploration principle, making high utilization of samples observed online. More concretely, we apply a grid over the continuous state space and partition it into different cells. Then, a near-upper Q iteration operator is defined to use samples in each cell and produce a near-upper Q function, whose corresponding greedy policy is efficient for exploration. MSEC is a totally model-free algorithm, which means no system dynamics is required during the implementation. It collects the system knowledge during the online learning. Based on PAC (Probability Approximately Correct) principle, MSCE can find a near-optimal policy in finite time bound online. To test the performance, an inverted pendulum is simulated and the results show the new algorithm is qualified for solving online optimal control problems.

The paper considers a given discrete-time linear dynamic in closed loop with a piecewise affine control law defined over a bounded polyhedral partition of the state space χ. The objective is to describe the largest error affecting the control law coefficients over each region in the above partition, for which the positive invariance of the set χ is guaranteed with respect to the closed loop dynamics. This subset describes in fact a robust invariance margin with respect to a subset of closed-loop parameters and subsequently represents the explicit fragility margin of the given piecewise affine controller. The fragility characterizes the impact of an error in the implementation of a given controller. It is shown that the largest subset of errors in the state feedback gains is represented by a polyhedral set explicitly constructed with operations over convex domains. A series of remarks on the structure of the numerical problems are discussed and an example is provided for illustration.

This paper introduces a systematic approach to synthesize linear parameter-varying (LPV) representations of nonlinear (NL) systems which are originally defined by control affine state-space representations. The conversion approach results in LPV state-space representations in the observable canonical form. Based on the relative degree concept of NL systems, the states of a given NL representation are transformed to new coordinates that provide its normal form. In the SISO case, all nonlinearities of the original system are embedded in one NL function which is factorized to construct the LPV form. An algorithms is proposed for this purpose. The resulting transformation yields an LPV model where the scheduling parameter depends on the derivatives of the inputs and outputs of the system. In addition, if the states of the NL model can be measured or estimated, then the procedure can be modified to provide LPV models scheduled by these states. Examples are included for illustration.
