Design and Performance Evaluation for Systems in an Uncertain Environment.

Abstract

Included in this report are results of investigations into the following topics: design and performance evaluation of optimal and suboptimal estimation and tgracking systems for space-time point-process observations; optimal signal design for coded, direct-detection optimal communication systems; informationally-decentralized shortest path algorithms for networks; singular estimation and control problems; compensator design for polynomial matrix descriptions of linear multivariable systems; a direct proof of the informational equivalence of the innovations and observations processes for linear estimation or Gaussian processes; and quantitative measures of controllability and observability and their implications in system analysis and performance evaluation.
