High-Level Petri Nets-Based Modeling of Network Controlled Systems under Communication Constraints (Network-Induced Delay)

Year: 2022

Type: article

Abstract: Our work deals with the problems of communication delays, packets dropouts, and quantization errors in the signal transmitted in network-controlled systems (NCS). Although NCS provides a paradigm for adapting to frequent changes in the manufacturing industry, modeling and managing operations are difficult issues due to the complex interactions between system entities and the effect of the network-induced delay on the closed-loop system. Therefore, our paper is about detecting degradations resulting from the insertion of a network in the regulation loop, which can even lead in some cases to the destabilization of the NCS. This paper mainly studies the problem of the graphic modeling, based on the colored Petri nets (CPN), of the NCS under communication constraints. Therefore, models of the communication network (Ethernet) and system entities are presented. Then, the influence of network-induced delay is detected. Finally, as an idea for future work, we propose a solution based on an SDN controller in order to avoid precedent degradations.
