Outline of Final Research Achievements

To provide communication techniques for reliable remote control systems, we have tackled cross-layer design and optimization problem based on control and communication theory. From a view point of data compression and error correction of control data, performance improvement techniques have been investigated. Proposed cross-layer techniques (data compression techniques based on the importance of control data, error correcting coding techniques based on the importance of control data, joint data compression and error correcting coding techniques, and error correcting decoding techniques based on a priori information of control data) can achieve higher control quality than the conventional techniques based only on the communication layer.
