Comparison of different sampling schemes for wireless control subject to packet losses

• Three different approaches to reduce the amount of communication in wireless control subject to packet losses have been evaluated in an extensive simulation study. The sampling approaches are: slow periodic, event-based and self-triggered sampling. They are ranked based on their integrated absolute error (IAE) control performance and also compared with fast periodic sampling. The three approaches have surprisingly equal control performance in the nominal case (without packet losses) for a wide range of test scenarios (process models, controller tunings etc.). With packet losses the importance of re-transmissions becomes evident.
