Abstract

In real-time wireless control systems, the freshness of information is crucial since performance highly depends on timely exchange of information between the plant and the controller. In this study, the age metric, Age of Control Process (AoCP), is proposed for real-time wireless control systems which is different from traditional Age of Information (AoI). The First Generate First Serve (FGFS) M/M/1/1 ? M/M/1/1 tandem queue model is considered to present a closed form expression for computation of AoCP and testbed environment is employed for the analysis of AoCP measure. Our experiment results show that FGFS M/M/1/1 ? M/M/1/1 queuing model is suitable to represent real-time control systems. In addition, the proposed definition provides closer results to the experiment results when compared with the traditional AoI definition. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that conducts information freshness measurements on real-time control testbed.
