A Novel Approach for Selecting Effective Threshold Values in Ternary State Estimation Using Particle Swarm Optimization

Abstract

Inspired by recent breakthroughs in cyber-physical systems (CPSs) and their applications, in this paper, we propose a novel multi-objective method to optimize the threshold values within the ternary event-based framework. To reduce communication overhead, the particle swarm optimization (PSO) approach is applied as an optimizer to identify Pareto optimal set values of the threshold. The proposed optimization technique is subject to constraints to ensure its feasibility. The simulation results confirm the efficiency of the recommended method. Furthermore, the simulation results demonstrate that the proposed framework is comprehensive and capable of finding a wide variety of Pareto optimal ternary event-based state estimations for each predefined threshold.
