Abstract

The distributed consensus intends to improve the reliability of critical decision making in wireless connected autonomous systems. The performance of distributed consensus heavily depends on the reliability of wireless links, which should be stochastic with limited communication resources. Therefore, advanced communication resource allocation schemes are needed to achieve high reliability and low latency for the distributed consensus. This article first derives optimized resource allocation schemes for the distributed consensus. The optimal number of nodes for the best reliability performance of the distributed consensus is also investigated to solve the inadequate overall communication resources issue. The revealed derivation and simulation results can provide guidelines to deploy the appropriate paradigm of communication resource allocation in autonomous wireless systems.
