    Feedback control under data rate constraints: An overview
    Nair, GN ; Fagnani, F ; Zampieri, S ; Evans, RJ (INSTITUTE OF ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS (IEEE), 2007)
    The emerging area of control with limited data rates incorporates ideas from both control and information theory. The data rate constraint introduces quantization into the feedback loop and gives the interconnected system a two-fold nature, continuous and symbolic. In this paper, we review the results available in the literature on data-rate-limited control. For linear systems, we show how fundamental tradeoffs between the data rate and control goals, such as stability, mean entry times, and asymptotic state norms, emerge naturally. While many classical tools from both control and information theory can still be used in this context, it turns out that the deepest results necessitate a novel, integrated view of both disciplines.
