Optimal Resource Allocation in URLLC for Real-Time Wireless Control Systems

As one of the most important communication scenarios in the comingfifth generation (5G) cellular networks, ultra-reliable and low-latency communication (URLLC) is promising to enable real-time wireless control systems. However, one of the biggest challenges is that how to integrate URLLC and control performance together to maximize the overall system performance. In this paper, we investigate the resource allocation for URLLC uplink in real-time wireless control systems. Specifically, we first discuss the relationship between communication and control performance. Based on that, we convert the hybrid co-design problem into a regular wireless resource allocation problem. Then, we propose an iteration algorithm to obtain the optimal wireless resource allocation. Simulation results indicate the performance of our method.
