Abstract

Decentralized control problems with non-classical information structure relate, by definition, issues of information and control. If different controllers have different observations, a consensus estimate of the system state cannot be generated. To compensate for this information deficiency, any controller can generate an input signal that encodes part of its private information and which is subsequently observed by other controllers. The use of control actions to convey information through the system is known as signaling. Analysis and synthesis of signaling laws is an open and urgent problem of control theory.
