This book presents a unified frequency-domain method for the analysis of distributed control systems. The following important topics are discussed by using the proposed frequency-domain method: (1) Scalable stability criteria of networks of distributed control systems; (2) Effect of heterogeneous delays on the stability of a network of distributed control system; (3) Stability of Internet congestion control algorithms; and (4) Consensus in multi-agent systems. This book is ideal for graduate students in control, networking and robotics, as well as researchers in the fields of control theory and networking who are interested in learning and applying distributed control algorithms or frequency-domain analysis methods.

Klappentext

With the rapid development of micro-sensors, micro-motors, sensor networks and communication networks, spatially distributed control systems have attracted increasing attention. Internet congestion control and the multi-robot coordination control are two typical examples of distributed control systems. In such systems global collective behaviors emerge or global targets are reached through a distributed control strategy. In Frequency-Domain Analysis and Design of Distributed Control Systems, Yu-Ping Tian systematically covers distributed control to help readers solve the effects of delays on stability.

  • The first book to introduce frequency-domain methods for the analysis of distributed control systems, covering:
  • Scalable stability criteria of networks of distributed control systems
  • Effect of heterogeneous delays on the stability of a network of distributed control systems
  • Stability of Internet congestion control algorithms
  • Consensus in multi-agent systems
  • Introduces control design problems related to frequency domain analysis
  • PowerPoint slides with book figures available for instructor use

This book is ideal for graduate students in control, networking and robotics. The book is also geared for researchers in the fields of control theory and networking, who are interested in learning and applying distributed control algorithms or frequency-domain analysis methods.
