Relativistic Rocket Control (Relativistic Space-Travel Flight Control): Feedback Control of Relativistic Dynamics Propelled by Ejecting Mass
Song Fang, Quanyan Zhu
In this short note, we investigate the feedback control of relativistic dynamics propelled by mass ejection, modeling, e.g., the relativistic rocket control or the relativistic (sp…
Fundamental Limits of Controlled Stochastic Dynamical Systems: An Information-Theoretic Approach
Song Fang, Quanyan Zhu
In this paper, we examine the fundamental performance limitations in the control of stochastic dynamical systems; more specifically, we derive generic bounds that h…
Fundamental Stealthiness-Distortion Tradeoffs in Dynamical Systems under Injection Attacks: A Power Spectral Analysis

In this paper, we analyze the fundamental stealthiness-distortion tradeoffs of linear Gaussian dynamical systems under data injection attacks using a power spectral analysis, where…
Information-Theoretic Performance Limitations of Feedback Control: Underlying Entropic Laws and Generic Bounds
Song Fang, Quanyan Zhu
In this paper, we utilize information theory to study the fundamental performance limitations of generic feedback systems, where both the controller and the plant may be any causal…
Relativistic Control: Feedback Control of Relativistic Dynamics
Song Fang, Quanyan Zhu
Strictly speaking, Newton's second law of motion is only an approximation of the so-called relativistic dynamics, i.e., Einstein's modification of the second law based on his theor…
Two-Way Coding and Attack Decoupling in Control Systems Under Injection Attacks
Song Fang, Karl Henrik Johansson, Mikael Skoglund +2
In this paper, we introduce the concept of two-way coding, which originates in communication theory characterizing coding schemes for two-way channels, into control theory, particu…
Two-Way Coding in Control Systems Under Injection Attacks: From Attack Detection to Attack Correction
Song Fang, Karl Henrik Johansson, Mikael Skoglund +2

A Frequency-Domain Characterization of Optimal Error Covariance for the Kalman-Bucy Filter
Song Fang, Hideaki Ishii, Jie Chen +1
In this paper, we discover that the trace of the division of the optimal output estimation error covariance over the noise covariance attained by the Kalman-Bucy filter can be expl…
Three Laws of Multivariable Feedback Systems, Extended Spectral Flatness (Extended Wiener Entropy), 'Uncertainty Principles' in Variance Minimization, and Performance Limitations in Minimum Variance Estimation/Filtering
Song Fang
In this paper, three laws are obtained for multiple-input multiple-output feedback systems, which are in entropy domain, frequency domain, and time domain, respectively. The system…

Song Fang
This paper aims at obtaining performance limitations of state estimation in terms of variance minimization (minimum variance estimation and filtering) using information theory. Two…
Three laws of feedback systems: entropy rate never decreases, generalized Bode integral, absolute lower bound in variance minimization, Gaussianity-whiteness measure (joint Shannon-Wiener entropy), Gaussianing-whitening control, and beyond
Song Fang
This paper aims at obtaining universal laws and absolute lower bounds of feedback systems using information theory. The feedback system setup is that with causal plants and causal…
