Abstract

Which reduced linear combination of its observations should Observer 2 send to Observer 1 so as to allow Controller 1 to make a better state estimate of the decentralized system? As a performance criterion, the variance of the state estimate is used. Algorithms and optimality are discussed for the case when the rank of the combination is free to be chosen and when it is fixed.
