Abstract

This paper investigates the attainability of the minimum average data rate for stabilization of linear systems via logarithmic quantization. It is shown that a finite-level logarithmic quantizer suffices to approach the well-known minimum average data rate for stabilizing an unstable linear discrete-time system under two basic network configurations. In particular, we derive explicit finite-level logarithmic quantizers and the corresponding controllers to approach the minimum average data rate.
