Multi-Sensor Data Fusion and Smart Decision Making

University of Sheffield Department of Automatic Control and Systems Engineering
Future intelligent systems will involve the deployment of large-scale sensor networks in which hundreds or thousands of microsensors, unexpensive, small and lightweight devices with integrated sensing, computing, communication and possibly actuation capabilities will work together to achieve a common mission-specific task.

Multi-rate and/or non square systems and/or decentralised control

University of Sheffield Department of Automatic Control and Systems Engineering
In many chemical processes there are limitations on the sampling rates and the number of inputs and outputs may not match. This affects the structure of the control law as one ends up with a so called multi-rate or non-square system , for which conventional control design is not applicable. Read more

Identification and classification of coherent flow structures in the plasma of the Sun’s photosphere

University of Sheffield Department of Automatic Control and Systems Engineering
The Sun is a star with a cyclic magnetic activity that can impact all the solar system. Thus, the solar magnetic field can interact with the Earth's magnetic field, permitting the entrance of energetic particles in the upper atmosphere, affecting technological devices, telecommunications and human health.

An Information Theoretic Approach to the Smart Grid

University of Sheffield Department of Automatic Control and Systems Engineering
The way the smart grid is envisioned in the near future is as a constantly changing system where intermittent renewable sources and non stationary loads impose a turbulent system. Read more
