Abstract
Transmit power control is crucial in wireless networks due to limited battery power, impacting both economic and environmental aspects by reducing power consumption. High transmission power diminishes node lifespan, causes interference, and pollution. Existing work in wireless networks mainly focuses on power policies for communication aspects like quality of service and channel capacity, while wireless networked control systems (WNCSs) require adapted policies for control-oriented requirements such as stability. Recent research in the control community has predominantly focused on linear systems or non-linear systems with a single-link perspective. This paper introduces a framework for designing stabilising transmit power levels for broader classes of non-linear plants and multi-link scenarios. By considering the non-linear relationship between channel success probabilities and transmit power, we establish stability conditions linking channel probabilities and transmission rate. These results, along with practical interference models, offer a methodology for stabilising transmit power in non-linear and multi-link WNCSs.
期刊介绍:
Automatica is a leading archival publication in the field of systems and control. The field encompasses today a broad set of areas and topics, and is thriving not only within itself but also in terms of its impact on other fields, such as communications, computers, biology, energy and economics. Since its inception in 1963, Automatica has kept abreast with the evolution of the field over the years, and has emerged as a leading publication driving the trends in the field.
After being founded in 1963, Automatica became a journal of the International Federation of Automatic Control (IFAC) in 1969. It features a characteristic blend of theoretical and applied papers of archival, lasting value, reporting cutting edge research results by authors across the globe. It features articles in distinct categories, including regular, brief and survey papers, technical communiqués, correspondence items, as well as reviews on published books of interest to the readership. It occasionally publishes special issues on emerging new topics or established mature topics of interest to a broad audience.
Automatica solicits original high-quality contributions in all the categories listed above, and in all areas of systems and control interpreted in a broad sense and evolving constantly. They may be submitted directly to a subject editor or to the Editor-in-Chief if not sure about the subject area. Editorial procedures in place assure careful, fair, and prompt handling of all submitted articles. Accepted papers appear in the journal in the shortest time feasible given production time constraints.
