Abstract

This chapter introduces policies and actions regarding the selection of quantizers and controllers in networked control. It exhibits the important differences between the real-time communication formulation and the traditional Shannon theoretic setup which allows for large blocks of data (with unbounded block-length) to be encoded and transmitted. This distinction is highlighted in the context of distortion-constrained quantizer design and the rate-distortion theory. The chapter also establishes fundamental lower bounds on information rates needed for various forms of stochastic stabilization.
