Millimeter wave (mmWave) wireless networks rely on narrow beams to support multi-gigabit data rates. Nevertheless, the alignment of transmitter and receiver beams is a time-consuming operation, which introduces an alignment-throughput tradeoff. A wider beamwidth reduces the alignment overhead, but leads also to reduced directivity gains. Moreover, existing mmWave standards schedule a single transmission in each time slot, although directional communications facilitate multiple concurrent transmissions. In this paper, a joint consideration of the problems of beamwidth selection and scheduling is proposed to maximize effective network throughput. The resulting optimization problem requires exact knowledge of network topology, which may not be available in practice. Therefore, two standard-compliant approximation algorithms are developed, which rely on underestimation and overestimation of interference. The first one aims to maximize the reuse of available spectrum, whereas the second one is a more conservative approach that schedules together only links that cause no interference. Extensive performance analysis provides useful insights on the directionality level and the number of concurrent transmissions that should be pursued. Interestingly, extremely narrow beams are in general not optimal.

In this paper, we provide a compositional framework for the construction of infinite approximations of interconnected stochastic controlsystems. Our approach is based on a notion of so-called stochastic simulation functions that are associated with interfaces. The stochastic simulation functions are used to quantify the approximation error while the interfaces are used to lift the controllers synthesized for the approximation to the controllers for the original stochastic system. In the first part of the paper, we analyze interconnected stochastic controlsystems which consist of several stochastic control subsystems. We derive sufficient conditions that facilitate the compositional construction of stochastic simulation functions together with the associated interfaces. Specifically, we show how to construct a stochastic simulation function with the corresponding interface for the interconnected stochastic control system from the simulation functions and interfaces of the individual stochastic control subsystems. In the second part of the paper, we focus on linear stochastic controlsystems. We extend a methodology, which is known for the non-probabilistic case, to construct infinite approximations of linear stochastic controlsystems together with their stochastic simulation functions and the corresponding interfaces. Finally, we illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed results on the interconnection of four linear stochastic control subsystems.
It is well known that the process of tuning a fuzzy logic controller is almost always a very complex task, which is time consuming, very laborious and often requires expert knowledge of the controlled system. Mapping ...

Kernel-based regularization approaches for linear time-invariant system identification have been introduced recently. This class of methods corresponds to a particular regularized least-squares methodology that may achieve a favorable bias/variance trade-off compared with classical Prediction Error Minimization (PEM) methods. However, to fully exploit this property, the kernel function itself needs to be appropriately designed for the identification problem at hand to be able to successfully capture all relevant aspects of the data-generating system. Hence, there is a need for a methodology that can accomplish this design step without affecting the simplicity of these approaches. In this paper, we propose a systematic kernel construction mechanism to capture dynamic system behavior via the use of orthonormal basis functions (OBFs). Two special cases are investigated as an illustration of the construction mechanism, namely Laguerre and Kautz based kernel structures. Monte-Carlo simulations show that OBFs-based kernels with Laguerre basis perform well compared with stable spline/TC kernels, especially for slow systems with dominant poles close to the unit circle. Moreover, the capability of Kautz basis to model resonant systems is also shown.

In this paper, the problem of stabilizing an unstable second order delay system using classical proportional-integralderivative(PID) controller is considered. An extension of the Hermite-Biehler theorem, which is applicable to quasi-polynomials, is used to seek the set of complete stabilizing proportional-integral/proportional-integral-derivative(PI/PID) parameters. The range of admissible proportional gains is determined in closed form. For each proportional gain, the stabilizing set in the space of the integral and derivative gains is shown to be a triangle.

In many practical applications of system identification, it is not feasible to measure both the inputs applied to the system as well as the output. In such situations, it is desirable to estimate both the inputs and the dynamics of the system simultaneously;this is known as the blind identification problem. In this paper, we provide a novel extension of subspace methods to the blind identification of multiple-input multiple-output linear systems. We assume that our inputs lie in a known subspace, and we are able to formulate the identification problem as rank constrained optimization, which admits a convex relaxation. We show the efficacy of this formulation with a numerical example.

Coordination control of multiple rigid bodies attracts much attention of researchers due to its wide applications. This paper presents the pose synchronization problem of the moving rigid bodies whose dynamics is described by the group SE(3).The case of bidirectional neighbor graphs with switching interconnection topologies is considered. We design a distributed control law based on relative rotation matrices and relative positions between the neighboring rigid bodies, and show that the SE(3)reaches pose synchronization if and only if the neighbor graphs are infinitely jointly connected, which relaxes the theoretical results in the existing literature.
