Optimal bandwidth scheduling of networked learning control system based on Nash theory and auction mechanism (Q473789)

Summary: This paper addresses the optimal bandwidth scheduling problem for a double-layer networked learning control system (NLCS). To deal with this issue, auction mechanism is employed, and a dynamic bandwidth scheduling methodology is proposed to allocate the bandwidth for each subsystem. A noncooperative game fairness model is formulated, and the utility function of subsystems is designed. Under this framework, estimation of distribution algorithm (EDA) is used to obtain Nash equilibrium for NLCS. Finally, simulation and experimental results are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
