基于控制角度的无线传感器网络时钟同步优化算法

针对无线传感器网络(WSN)时间同步过程中易受干扰,易发生通信延迟所造成的同步精度不高、收敛速度不快的问题,从控制的角度提出一种时钟同步优化算法。该算法首先建立时钟同步状态模型,然后通过现代控制理论的思想,引入中心控制策略,建立基于控制的时间同步状态模型。该控制策略是通过全局的时钟状态信息进行设计,在卡尔曼滤波最优估计前提下,使控制满足使性能指标函数最小的条件下,得到最优控制。仿真结果表明,所提出的时钟同步优化算法和无线传感器时钟同步协议(TPSN)相比,从第6步时钟同步开始,前者的同步误差逐渐比后者的同步误差小;在实现同一较高精度的同步需求时,前者需要的同步次数是后者所用的同步次数的20%左右;由时钟同步误差收敛均值的方差对比值显示,前者比后者的同步误差均方差小了两个数量级,因此所提出的时钟同步优化算法比时钟同步协议同步精度高、收敛速度快、网络通信负荷低。

Consecutive Synchronization of a Delayed Complex Dynamical Network via Distributed Adaptive Control Approach

In this paper, a consecutive synchronization scheme is investigated to synchronize the nodes of a delayed complex dynamical network with an isolated node via an adaptive control approach. The specific feature of this scheme consists in the structure of the communication links: a communication connection is required between the isolated node and one selected node in the network, and further communication links exist between any node and one neighbor node. In this way, all nodes are connected together like a chain. Based on Lyapunov-Krasovskii theory, some conditions are obtained in the form of linear matrix inequalities to guarantee the consecutive synchronization by the designed distributed adaptive control. To make this synchronization scheme more practical, no constraints have been considered for coupling connection matrix such as being symmetric or zero row sum. Finally, a numerical example is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Adaptive multimedia synchronization in a teleconference system

In this paper, we present an adaptive buffering scheme for implementing intra-stream and inter-stream synchronization in real-time multimedia applications. The essence of the proposed scheme is to dynamically enforce equalized delays to incoming media streams, in order to piece-wise smooth the network delay variations and to synchronize the streams at the sink. An adaptive control mechanism based on an event-counting algorithm is employed to calibrate the PlayOut Clocks (POCs), which manages the presentations of multimedia data. The algorithm does not rely on globally synchronized clock and makes minimal assumption on underlying network delay distribution. Also, the user defined quality of service (QoS) specifications can be directly incorporated into the design parameters of the synchronization algorithm. The proposed synchronization scheme has been experimentally implemented in a teleconference system which consists of separately controllable audio, video, and data channels. The modular structure of the synchronization control provides the flexibility to maintain an arbitrary synchronization group in conjunction with a distributed conference management scheme. This paper also shows the experimental results of the test implementation and the suitability of the proposed scheme with respect to the multimedia traffic across an FDDI/Ethernet network.     

Adaptive aperiodically intermittent control for pinning synchronization of directed dynamical networks

In this paper, we investigate the pinning synchronization of directed complex network with time‐varying delay under the adaptive aperiodically intermittent control. First, the model of a directed complex network is established, the interaction graph of which is not required to contain a directed spanning tree, and for which an adaptive aperiodically intermittent feedback controller is well designed. In addition, based on the Lyapunov function method and linear matrix inequality technique, several asymptotical synchronization criteria are derived via an aperiodically intermittent strategy, which is superior to the periodical scheme. Moreover, the adaptive strategy providing the exponential convergence rate and the pinning algorithm demonstrating how to select pinned nodes are presented. Finally, numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the derived theoretical results.     

Prescribed performance synchronization for uncertain chaotic systems with input saturation based on neural networks

In this paper, a prescribed performance adaptive neural network synchronization is investigated for a class of unknown chaotic systems in the presence of input saturation and external unknown disturbances. A prescribed performance function is employed to transform the constraint problem of chaotic synchronization control error into the problem of guaranteeing the boundedness of the transformed error. By introducing the Gaussian error function, the input saturation is handled. A neural network-based synchronization control scheme is then developed. Under the developed synchronization control scheme, the synchronization of uncertain chaotic systems is achieved with different initial conditions. Numerical simulation results further demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed synchronization control scheme for unknown chaotic systems subject to external unknown disturbances and input saturation.

     

Real-Time Multimedia Synchronization based on Delay Offset and Playout Rate Adjustment

We investigate here an efficient and flexible multimedia synchronization method that can be applied to intramedia and intermedia synchronization in a consistent manner. Because the synchronization requirements can vary widely according to the multimedia application in use, it is necessary to control the individual synchronization (delay sensitivity, error tolerance etc.) for each media separately. In addition, the synchronization method should handle the performance variations in the underlying network and systems. We propose an adaptive synchronization scheme based on the delay offset and playout rate adjustment that can match the application's varying synchronization requirements effectively. The model, algorithm and operation of the proposed method are presented in this paper.     

Decentralized adaptive synchronization of an uncertain complex delayed dynamical network

In this paper, we investigate the locally and globally adaptive synchronization problem for an uncertain complex dynamical network with time-varying coupling delays based on the decentralized control. The coupling terms here are bounded by high-order polynomials with known gains that are ubiquitous in a large class of complex dynamical networks. We generalize the usual technology of searching for an appropriate coordinates transformation to change the network dynamics into a series of decoupled lower-dimensional systems. Several adaptive synchronization criteria are derived by constructing the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and Barbalat lemma, and the proposed criteria are simple in form and convenient for the practical engineering design. Numerical simulations illustrated by a nearest-neighbor coupling network verify the effectiveness of the proposed synchronization scheme.     

Adaptive synchronization of uncertain coupled stochastic complex networks

In this paper, the problem of adaptive synchronization of uncertain coupled complex networks is investigated. Some controllers and adaptive laws are designed to ensure achieving synchronization of a general complex network model. In particular, synchronization of coupled stochastic networks subject to random perturbations is studied, with a referenced node introduced as the target node for synchronization. An example is simulated on delayed neural networks coupled in a small‐world network topology, which demonstrates the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed adaptive control method.
