Abstract

For a closed-loop system with a digital channel between the sensor and controller, invariance entropy quantifies the smallest average rate of information above which a compact subset Q of the state set can be made invariant. There exist different versions of invariance entropy for deterministic and uncertain control systems, which are equivalent in the deterministic case. In this paper, we present the first numerical approaches to obtain rigorous upper bounds of these quantities. Our approaches are based on set-valued numerical analysis and graph-theoretic constructions. We combine existing algorithms from the literature to carry out our computations for several linear and nonlinear examples. A comparison with the theoretical values of the entropy shows that our bounds are of the same order of magnitude as the actual values.(c) 2022 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
