Active Systems Communicational Control Assessment in Multi-Alternative Navigational Situations

Abstract

The paper goal is to investigate the influence of a communicative networking upon the navigation control and managerial decision making process in the framework of the subjective entropy maximum principle. The subjective analysis theory entropy paradigm makes it possible to consider the navigation control system based upon communication networks as an active system governed by an individual (active element of the control system) with the help of her/his individual subjective preferences optimal distributions obtained in conditions of operational multi-alternativeness and, those navigation operational alternatives, the active system active element’s individual subjective preferences uncertainty. The described approach takes into account the simple navigational two-alternative operational situation in regards with the objectively existing effectiveness functions, related to informative communication, in the view of a controlled parameter and a combination of it with its rate as the product. The obtained expressions for the objective functional extremal functions of the effectiveness and preferences, as well as the subjective entropy of the alternatives preferences, illustrated in diagrams, visualize the navigational situation and allow taking a good choice. The ideas of the required proper governing, managing, and control methods choice optimization with respect to only 2 alternative navigational objective effectiveness functions arguments might be simple; nevertheless, increasing the number of motion control parameters and further complication of the problem setting will not change the principle of the problem solution.
