“…For instance, the control community has investigated control design and stability analysis for wireless (and wired) networks based on different system architectures, delay models, and message loss processes (see, e.g., [3,22,37,46,50,51,56,59,63]); recent surveys provide an overview of this body of fundamental research [27,62]. However, the majority of those works focuses on theoretical analyses or validates new wireless CPS designs (e.g., based on WirelessHART [35,42]) only in simulation, thereby ignoring many fundamental challenges that may complicate or prevent a real implementation [36]. One of the challenges, as detailed in Section 3, is that even slight variations in the quality of a wireless link can trigger drastic changes in the routing topology [13]-and this can happen several times per minute [23].…”
