Abstract

We propose a periodic event-based control scheme in which, when the sensor triggers an event, also past and subsequent values of the controlled variable are transmitted. We employ this idea to obtain a stability condition independent of the used event-triggering mechanism. In turn, we exploit this independence to devise a methodology for extending existing controller (auto)tuning rules to the event-based setting and provide an example with the internal model control PID (IMC-PID) rule. We then abstract the functionalities that a wireless sensor node has to offer for implementing our scheme and finally present such a node, physically realized in a completely hardware-based form to the advantage of both energy efficiency and security. Simulations results and experiments with the so-obtained control architecture (wireless sensor node plus event-based IMC-PID) are reported.
