Wireless Networked Control Systems (WNCSs) are spatially distributed systems in which sensors, actuators, and controllers connect through a wireless network instead of traditional point-to-point links. WNCSs have a tremendous potential to improve the efficiency of many large-scale distributed systems in industrial automation, building automation, automated highway, air transportation, and smart grid. Transmitting sensor measurements and control commands over wireless links provide many benefits such as the ease of installation and maintenance, low complexity and cost, and large flexibility to accommodate the modification and upgrade of the components in many control applications. Several industrial organizations, such as International Society of Automation (ISA), Highway Addressable Remote Transducer (HART), and Wireless In- dustrial Networking Alliance (WINA), have been actively pushing the application of wireless technologies in the control applications. Building a WNCS is very challenging since control systems often have stringent requirements on timing and reliability, which are difficult to attain by wireless sensor networks due to the adverse properties of the wireless communication and limited battery resources of the nodes. We provide a framework for the joint optimization of controller and communication systems encompassing efficient abstractions of both systems.

Requires expertise for both systems, and still unsolved problem
Scheduling design necessitates understanding requirements of sensor nodes and network
If we had chosen a smaller subframe length
than T1, say T1=2, this may have resulted in a more uniform
distribution than choosing T1 still satisfying the periodic data
generation and delay requirements of the sensors. However,
since a transmission cannot be done partially in different time
intervals, the shorter unallocated time duration at the end of the
subframes may not allow including new nodes, changing the
transmission time or allocating additional messages violating
the adaptivity requirement. The shorter subframe length may
even avoid generating feasible schedules if the length of the
time slots is too large to fit in one subframe. Choosing the
subframe length larger than T1 on the other hand does not
bring any advantage and result in less uniform distribution.
