Abstract

Topological feedback entropy is a measure for the smallest information rate in a digital communication channel between the coder and the controller of a control system, above which the control task of rendering a subset of the state space invariant can be solved. It is defined purely in terms of the open-loop system without making reference to a particular coding and control scheme and can also be regarded as a measure for the inherent rate at which the system generates “invariance information.”
